Leveraging Questions for Metacognition | April 10. 12-1:30 p.m.

The way you design questions can have a powerful impact on student learning. Karen Hershberger, Assistant Teaching Professor in the Department of Pathobiological Sciences at the School of Veterinary Medicine, will share practical strategies for structuring questions that foster metacognition and self-regulated learning, helping students plan effectively, monitor their understanding, and reflect on their progress.

From Copy/paste to Critical Thought | April 17, 12-1:30 p.m.

Amid the growing prevalence of AI, how can we equip students with discipline-specific knowledge, critical thinking skills, and a clear sense of scholarly responsibility? CTLM's Amanda Leary, Ph.D., will share strategies for motivating and engaging students in the essential “brain work” of our courses—work that includes questioning AI-generated outputs and taking ownership of what they submit.
