Universal Design for Learning (UDL) can feel overwhelming at the scale of an entire course. This 60-minute workshop focuses instead on a more manageable entry point: a single class meeting.

Building on ideas introduced in the JEDI PIE 2 module (though no prior participation is required), we will explore the UDL guidelines through the lens of Why–What–How:

• Why does this day matter for students? (Engagement)
• What is essential for them to learn? (Representation)
• How can they engage with and demonstrate learning in flexible ways? (Action & Expression)

Participants will apply this framework to one upcoming class session and consider how small, intentional design choices can scale across a semester. The goal is not a full course redesign, but a sustainable planning habit that makes individual class meetings clearer, more inclusive, and easier to navigate for both students and instructors.

Join us as we explore evidence-based, low-prep, and discipline-flexible gamification strategies that boost motivation, participation, and engagement without turning courses into video games. We'll consider both in-person and online teaching strategies that boost cognitive engagement and celebrates student success as they journey through the quests of coursework.

In this second part, instructors will learn to apply TILT to an assignment, keeping at the forefront transparency in the use of AI, workplace skills students are learning and any other 'purpose' instructors have built an assignment for. There will be peer-review and collaborative TILT-ing of assignments. Instructors are encouraged to bring an exam, assignment or rubric that is TILT-ed for peer-review. 

We encourage participants to review the recording from TILT Series Part 1 of the February 2nd workshop and do the homework assigned by going through these slides. 

Instructors will learn about the TILT (Transparency in Learning and Teaching) framework and how to apply it to their assignments, syllabi, exams and other course materials. TILTing two assignments in a semester has been shown to improve student outcomes and course completion. Dr. Anoshua Chaudhuri will lead this workshop with materials generously shared by TILTHigherEd.

CEETL will hold a Faculty Appreciation Event for all who completed CEETL programs this Fall semester. AI Teaching square participants will be invited to share their learning experiences—come enjoy catered bites, good company, and a moment to celebrate our amazing faculty community and accomplishments.

Join SFSU's Navigator & E-Advising Coordinator, Joshua Michael Rumley for a tour and tutorial of the student success platform Navigate360 (EAB Navigator). Explore Navigate360's use for student outreach and support and discuss ways in which we might use Navigate360 to enhance SFSU student belonging and retention.

Explore using personality quizzes as a teaching tool! We will share and take some teaching, learning, and personality surveys together and discuss how these can be both self-reflective and community-building activities in the classroom. Discover whether you're a rabbit, hawk, turtle, or tiger, and how you and your students can best utilize your animal strengths to achieve academic success.

Join us as we explore the ways in which craftmaking activities in the classroom can be utilized as culturally responsive teaching practices. Get ready to try your own hand at a few cultural crafts (supplies provided), share additional cultural crafts and resources, and contemplate ways in which you might incorporate craftmaking into your pedagogy.
