10462: How Students Use AI and How Professors Can Guide Students Toward Smarter AI Use

The rapid integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in education has transformed how students approach learning, yet their engagement with AI tools often lacks depth and sophistication. This workshop explores how educators can bridge this gap by teaching students to use AI more effectively and ethically. Drawing on research and experiences from business school courses, we will examine diverse AI approaches, including AI as tutor, coach, teammate, and more. Participants will engage in a collaborative session featuring insights into students' AI usage, discussions on challenges faced by educators, and brainstorming for practical solutions. Best practices and teaching strategies for incorporating AI into classroom activities will be shared, along with templates for immediate implementation. Attendees will leave equipped with actionable approaches to enhance student learning, foster critical thinking, and address ethical considerations in the evolving landscape of AI in higher education.
