AI Literacy Workshop: Overview and Criticial Examination

Texas Tech University Library’s AI Literacy workshop series developed weekly for spring 2024. Included here are materials related to part 1. This resource can be used as a general starting point for introducing and understanding the technology. Additionally, the workshop utilizes Padlet to facilitate discussion for active learning in a hybrid setting. Sessions can be held online, in-person, or hybrid. These sessions are also for broad appeal, and included faculty, staff, graduate students, and undergraduate students in attendance.

Learning objectives for this session included:

• Understand what generative AI is.
• Understand the background of generative AI in higher education.
• Understand the biases and other problems inherent in AI systems.

This resource drew on many different aspects within the ACRL Framework.

Included in the documentation is an outline with discussion questions and slides.
