As artificial intelligence reshapes everything from classrooms to careers, the University of Mary Washington is bringing that dialogue to campus. UMW’s new Center for AI and the Liberal Arts will host a public lecture exploring the ubiquitous technology’s role in education, helping students, educators and community members navigate the change.
The talk, titled Reclaiming Human Intelligence in the Age of AI: Plural Futures for Education and Society, will be given by Alan Coverstone, an educator, leader and consultant with more than 30 years of experience in K-12 and higher education. It will be held on Wednesday, Oct. 29, at 7 p.m., at the Cedric Rucker University Center in the Chandler Ballroom. A reception will follow.
“Dr. Coverstone’s version of AI pluralism aligns beautifully with Mary Washington’s liberal arts mission,” said Professor of Communication Anand Rao, who is director of the Center for AI and the Liberal Arts. “He reminds us that intelligence takes many forms, and that education must nurture all of them. His work underscores the mission of our center, which is to prepare students to think critically, question technology and lead ethically in a digital age.” Read more.
