Interact with MSOE’s Copilot 365 AI Community of Practice (AI CoP) members. The AI CoP is a group of MSOE faculty members who are exploring the features, potential, and pitfalls of Copilot 365 and other generative AI tools with a focus on how they can benefit university faculty and, indirectly, students. Topics include: 

• Teaching responsible and effective use of AI tools.
• Generating and enhancing course presentations, handouts, and assignments (including lab activities) using AI tools.
• The creation of course- and instructor-specific AI agents (virtual tutors).
• Understanding the risks and benefits of automating the evaluation of student work.
• Identifying the misuse of AI tools by students, including using AI use detection tools.
• Automating routine and repetitive faculty administrative tasks using AI tools.
