With the generous support from UCLA GenAI, Humanities Technology is currently developing an AI Toolkit for the Humanities Classroom. This toolkit will include resources such as AI best practices in the classroom, the ethics of AI use, sample AI-based activities and lesson plans, and AI-based assignments and assessments. The toolkit is being developed in collaboration with our Research and Instructional Technology Consultants (RITCs); a team of graduate student employees focused on instructional and internal research support.
