The Generative Artificial Intelligence Community of Practice (GenAI CoP) at the University of South Carolina is a collaborative initiative designed to explore and discuss the implications of GenAI in higher education. This community brings together faculty, staff, and graduate students to share insights, strategies, and experiences related to the integration of GenAI across administration, research, teaching, and learning.
The GenAI CoP meets regularly to provide a platform for participants to:
- Discuss Practical Applications: Explore how GenAI can be utilized across administration, research, teaching, and learning.
- Explore Emerging Trends: Stay informed about the latest developments and share best practices in GenAI.
- Develop Integration Strategies: Formulate responsible approaches for incorporating GenAI into higher education.
- Share Experiences: Exchange challenges and successes to collectively shape the future of this transformative technology at USC.
