In this episode of the Learning Futures Podcast, I joined by Dr. Kristen Chorba and Dr. Jess Zeitler to explore what generative AI use actually looks like across higher education. Drawing on their research with faculty, instructional designers, curriculum developers, and other higher education professionals, the conversation moves beyond the AI hype to examine how educators are integrating AI into their day-to-day work, what drives adoption, what barriers remain, and what thoughtful and responsible AI use looks like in practice. The discussion also explores AI literacy, faculty development, instructional design, institutional policy, human judgment, and the evolving value of professional expertise, while considering what colleges and universities can do now to build meaningful AI capability for the future of teaching and learning. If you're navigating AI in your own institution and wondering how to move from resistance to resilience this conversation is for you. Stream it on your favorite podcast channel below 👇
