AI and Higher Ed Webinar with Dr. De Liu from Minnesota Carlson

 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

AI chatbots are reshaping education—but their impact on learning isn’t always positive. Standard tools can sometimes impede understanding, while carefully designed systems can dramatically enhance it.

Join University of Minnesota professor De Liu as he shares experimental findings on when chatbots hinder versus help, and introduces SmartPAL, a gamified AI learning assistant built to provide timely, personalized, and contextualized support.

Don’t miss this opportunity to explore how generative AI can be designed to truly support student learning and instructor success.
