Teaching Circle: Active Learning and In-class Assessment in the Age of AI 12-1 pm Monday, Oct. 27, 2025, 409 Sondheim Hall

UMBC's Department of Mathematics and Statistics will hold a teaching circle series on "Active Learning and In-class Assessment in the Age of AI", moderated by Professor Manil Suri. The sessions will explore the pedagogical pitfalls and possibilities that new AI systems have opened up, with a focus on Math 200 and 300 level undergraduate courses.

The first session will be held 12-1pm on Monday, October 27, in 409 Sondheim Hall, with subsequent sessions on November 10 and December 8. Participants are encouraged to share their own AI-related classroom experiences at the first meeting.

William Gao, a senior in the Centennial High School, was selected as one of the 40 finalists in the 2024 Regeneron Science Talent Search from among more than 2,000 entrants. Each finalist was awarded a $25,000 prize.

William was mentored by UMBC Professor Yi Huang, an Associate Professor of Mathematics and Statistics. Their research led to the development of an artificial intelligence-driven, resource-efficient, mobile diagnostic system to identify cancerous regions in patient tumor samples which is described in an article in Cancer Informatics:

Gao W, Wang D, Huang Y, Designing a Deep Learning-Driven Resource-Efficient Diagnostic System for Metastatic Breast Cancer: Reducing Long Delays of Clinical Diagnosis and Improving Patient Survival in Developing Countries, Cancer Informatics 2023;22.

Finalists will participate in a week-long competition in March 2024, during which they will undergo a rigorous judging process that goes beyond their own research to encompass other scientific disciplines and compete for more than $1.8 million in awards.
