Share what you’re trying. Learn across roles. \n\n\n\nAI questions rarely stay within one department. A new AI tool can raise questions about teaching and learning\, information security\, data governance\, accessibility\, student support\, and university operations — all at the same time. No single role sees the whole picture because expertise is scattered across campus. Bringing varied perspectives and expertise together is why we started AI Club. \n\n\n\nAI Club is a monthly\, informal community of practice where colleagues bring real questions\, experiments\, and work in progress involving AI. A typical session includes one or two brief\, informal shares followed by conversation\, collaborative problem-solving\, and an exchange of practical ideas and resources. \n\n\n\nMeetings are conversations\, not lectures. You do not need prior AI expertise\, a presentation\, or a polished success story. Come to share something you are trying\, ask for help\, offer a perspective from your role\, or simply listen. Instructors\, IT and security staff\, and administrators — all roles and experience levels are welcome. \n\n\n\n\nLearn More About AI Club\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration Form\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n Name(Required)\n \n \n First\n \n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n \n University Email(Required)\n \n Please provide instructions if you require accommodations for this eventUniversity Appointment?\n \n \n Tenured / Tenured-track Faculty\n \n \n \n Non-tenured Faculty\n \n \n \n Staff\n \n \n \n Teaching Assistant\n \n \n \n Student\n \n \n \n Other\n If you selected Other\, please explain.University Department or Business Unit?How did you hear about this event?

Join us for this year’s Disillusioning AI Fellowship for Universities of Wisconsin Educators! \n\n\n\nWith the advent of generative AI\, teachers are faced with the difficult choice of trusting advanced technologies to take advantage of their transformative potential.
