Six modules. One teaching-ready portfolio.

Move from disciplinary values to a redesigned assignment, transparent policy, and a sustainable six-month plan.

How to take this course

The complete lecture sequence runs about 3 hours (184 minutes). Each module pairs its lectures with a faculty development reading (roughly 25–30 minutes) that synthesizes the module and prepares you for its worksheet. Use one real course as your design substrate. Complete the modules in sequence for the strongest portfolio story, or begin with the problem you need to solve.

Course introduction and overview

These two short videos orient you to the course before you enter Module 1.

Introduction Video

1:49
Video summary

A short welcome that frames the whole course around one question: if a student completed an assignment you care about with substantial AI assistance, what would you still know about their learning? It introduces the stance of grounded curiosity — neither hype nor panic, with skepticism treated as professional judgment — and previews the six cumulative modules that end in a teaching-ready portfolio. All you need to bring is one course and a willingness to make one defensible decision at a time.

Course Overview Intro

7:45
Video summary

A guided tour of the full course: why AI is a design problem rather than a panic, how the six modules build on each other (stance, diagnose, judge, build, communicate, sustain), and the artifact each one produces. It introduces the five frameworks used throughout — the AI Assessment Scale, TILT, the Safety Gap, Oracle/Tutor/Adversary, and the Equity and Ethics Audit — and the course's two standing commitments: equity is more than access, and design must survive changing tools. It closes with exactly where to start and what you do not need (no paid tools, no live sessions, no technical expertise).

Conclusion Video

Video summary

A closing look at what you built: a named line in the sand, a friction audit, a stress-tested assessment, a redesigned assignment whose evidence holds with or without AI, a policy grounded in what students must own, an equity and ethics audit, and a packet a colleague could teach from. The durable distinction underneath all of it: the tool is not the learning evidence — student reasoning, judgment, and reflection are. The portfolio ends as a decision record with a maintenance habit, not a final verdict on AI.
