In this episode of the UM3D Podcast, we explore how educators are using generative AI, not just behind the scenes, but as an active part of student learning. Dr. Andrew Tawfik, Assistant Professor of Instructional Design and Technology at the University of Memphis, shares how he designs assignments that challenge students to create, critique, and refine visuals using AI tools such as Adobe Firefly, Google Gemini, and Microsoft Copilot. We discuss how AI can serve as a metacognitive partner in problem-solving, the evolving skill sets students need—like prompt engineering—and how to balance innovation with meaningful learning outcomes.
