Session Description:

This session is a brief introduction to three tech tools (Anthology Ally, Khanmigo, and Microsoft Co-Pilot) that are free and available to faculty at the university.

Ally: Our university's content accessibility service guides instructors on how to improve the accessibility of their course content and alter future behavior. Ally also generates alternative formats of the content for students.

ChatGPT: an AI assistant that can generate, summarize, explain, and revise text based on prompts you provide. Faculty can use it to support teaching, research, and administrative work by brainstorming ideas, creating drafts, summarizing information, and helping students engage with course content—while still applying their own expertise and judgment.

Microsoft Co-Pilot: An AI-powered tool that's designed to help you be more productive and creative in Microsoft 365 apps.
