Title: Purposeful Advising in the Era of Artificial Intelligence: Forming Ethical and Creative Thinkers
Lead Presenter: Caroline Futamura
Date: December 31, 1969    Time: 6:00 pm - 6:00 pm
Room:
Abstract: Given the rise of and reliance on artificial intelligence (AI) in the business and educational sectors, critical thinking is a particularly relevant learning outcome for students in K-12 schools and institutions of higher education. When we also consider AI's current inability to replicate human-experience-based ethical problem solving, we see how crucial our role as academic advisors continues to be in this era of AI. Leaning into our learners' real-life circumstances and values, we can harness their intrinsic motivation to exercise complex cognitive skills as they navigate the process of creative problem solving. In this light, the goal of this presentation is to "connect people, purpose, and possibility": bring academic advisors together into dialogue on why they should and how they can use specific advising approaches and strategies to form students into ethical and creative thinkers.
