October 31, 2025

Our friends at the Karen L. Smith Faculty Center for Teaching and Learning at University of Central Florida invite you to present at (and attend) their 4^th annual Teaching and Learning with AI conference. The conference will be held from June 11-13, 2026 in Orlando, Florida, the call for proposals closes on January 30, 2026.

We are happy to announce that the call for proposals is now open for the 4th annual Teaching and Learning with AI: A Sharing Conference Between Educational Practitioners, hosted by the University of Central Florida.

It will be held from June 11-13, 2026, in Orlando, Florida at the Gaylord Palms, a world-class resort hotel very near to Walt Disney World.

This in-person event will bring together instructors, higher education professionals, researchers, librarians, and policymakers to discuss best practices and the use of AI in classrooms and across campuses, colleges, and universities.

We are currently accepting proposal submissions for short presentations and posters.

Topics may include, but are not limited to:

Teaching models that embrace AI tools
Academic integrity and grading
Faculty using AI to create course content
Faculty development and support
Copyright, ownership, and provenance
Ethical considerations
Building AI applications for education
Institutional policies
Discipline-specific implementations of AI

The call for proposals is now open and will close on January 30, 2026.

Note: Since this is primarily a conference focused on sharing practices (rather than research), most sessions are brief. Additionally, priority will be given to proposals that offer clear ideas for takeaways that participants can apply in their own teaching, as well as sessions that appeal to multiple disciplines. Keep in mind that AI will continue to develop and evolve.

The event, which is face-to-face only, has four formats (see below):

30-Minute Sessions: Short presentations that spark discussion on complex questions about AI in college classrooms or libraries.
60-Minute Workshops: Interactive sessions offering deeper exploration of challenges or solutions. Limited spots available.
10-Minute TAI Talks: Quick, TED-style presentations showcasing practical AI techniques, tools, or solutions.
Poster Sessions: Visual presentations on teaching practices or research related to AI in higher education. Posters may be print or digital (presenters provide their own laptop).
