AI for Teaching and Learning

Higher education is no stranger to disruptive technologies; it wasn’t too long ago that we were reckoning with the impact of cell phones, laptops, and calculators on student learning.

Now, the widespread availability of generative AI presents new challenges—but with it also comes the opportunity to think deeply about what it means to educate students who will be living in a world filled with AI tools. To help with this, Notre Dame Learning offers both video and written resources that instructors can consult as they think about AI in the context of their teaching.

Assessment

At Notre Dame, we use the word “assessment” broadly, encompassing everything from how an individual instructor figures out whether a student is meeting a given learning goal in a class, how groups of faculty in a department or school responsible for a program understand how students are learning throughout that program, and how the entire University might understand and demonstrate the value of a Notre Dame education.

Beyond the resources listed here, you can read more about Notre Dame Learning’s assessment offerings, including how to request an assessment consultation with a member of our team, by clicking the button below.

Syllabus Policy Language

Course and University policies you choose to include in your syllabus are an opportunity to develop a supportive learning environment. University policies—such as those concerning accessibility, academic honesty, and Title IX—provide information and resources that connect students to the Notre Dame community. Course policies—on attendance, participation, technology, etc.—communicate your expectations of student behavior in your specific course.

These sample syllabus policies are provided as a starting point for adding policies to your syllabus. Instructors typically select those policies that are most relevant to their course context and modify them as needed. We recommend using welcoming, student-centered language that signals your commitment to student learning and growth.

Article

Accessibility

An accessibility policy signals to students that you are committed to equity and students' diverse learning access needs. You can invite students with accommodations to talk with you further about how you can best support their learning.
Article

Attendance

The best attendance policy is one that promotes student learning. Consider how your attendance policy can be compassionate and flexible, while also maintaining a high standard of learning for all students.
Article

Article

Resilience

Guidance on suggested syllabus language in the event of an emergency situation or disruption to normal campus operations (weather, health, etc.)
Article

Smart Use of Technology

Article

Title IX

Title IX prohibits sex discrimination in all university programs and activities, including, but not limited to, admissions, recruiting, financial aid, academic programs, etc. You may consider including a Title IX policy as a resource for students.
