last person joined: 27 days ago 

To provide a forum for fellow PPIRS librarians to share their experiences and ideas about how AI technologies affect their professional work. This group discussion will focus on recent advances in free and subscription generative AI tools that are actively in use by students, faculty, and staff in higher education. As these tools and their underlying technologies are advancing quickly, it is helpful to have an ongoing conversation with our peers to compare best practices and discoveries.

    We are kicking off 2025 with our monthly meeting of the PPIRS AI Literacy Discussion Group on Friday January 17 at 2PM. Our topic for January is "Developing Search and Critical Thinking Skills in a world of AI," from Natural Language to Prompt Engineering skills and the PPIRS ACRL Framework Companion--how to motivate students to do their own work to develop their critical thinking skills but also engage with them on constructive use of AI. You are encouraged to share relevant resources or news on the month's discussion topic beforehand on the working document as well as during the discussion.


    I hope you will join us on Friday, January 17 at  2PM Eastern to discuss this important topic with me, my co-coordinator Ann Cullen, and fellow PPIRS members!

    Best regards,

    Kim MacVaugh
