UM3D - INSTRUCTIONAL IMPACT

Mission Statement

Goals 

• Educate and Inform: Enhance our own awareness about the potentials, challenges, ethical implications, and current applications of LLMs in higher education by sharing and analyzing resources. 

• Provide Practice: Provide a safe and welcoming space to experiment and learn new technologies. 

• Collaborate and Network: Foster interdisciplinary collaboration and networking. 

• Create, Share, and Recommend Resources: Compile and analyze articles related to AI/LLMs in higher education; create and share best practices; share our CoP experience and lessons learned; present our findings for the benefit of the broader university academic population and beyond.
