Toni Amarel –  Using generative AI as a collaborative tool to redesign a dual-enrollment Statistics course. I’ll share how I’ve used AI to systematically analyze course scope and sequence, learning objectives, instruction, assignments, labs, assessments, and past patterns of student errors and misconceptions. I will show how I used the analysis to redesign and create targeted tasks that increase students’ ability to access challenging statistical concepts, make purposeful use of technology, make tasks more AI-resistant, and place greater emphasis on students making claims and supporting them with statistical evidence and justification.
