  • Valley City State University (VCSU) will host a three-part AI lecture series in April: “Making Sense of AI: Education, Workforce and Community.”

  • The series will be both in person and online, available statewide, and no pre-registration is required.

  • It will be presented by VCSU’s AI Institute for Teaching and Learning, focusing on practical insights about AI’s impacts on education, workforce, and society.

  • Sessions include:

    • Introduction to AI: Understanding AI, real-world applications, ethical considerations.
    • AI in Education: Current uses in teaching and learning by educators.
    • AI in Workforce: Impacts on job roles, skills needed, and emerging opportunities.
  • In-person sessions at VCSU’s Larry J. Robinson Center for the Arts and virtual sessions on Microsoft Teams.

  • The aim is to encourage nuanced conversations about AI, balancing optimism with caution. Key enduring human skills like communication and creativity are emphasized over AI expertise.

  • VCSU’s AI Institute aims to both integrate new technologies thoughtfully and strengthen the core educational mission.
