SUMMARY:Tune into Teaching: Introduction to Cogniti - U of T’s AI Tool to Support Student Learning
DESCRIPTION:Facilitator: Jordan Holmes\, Senior Manager\, Teaching\, Learning\, and Technology\, CTSIResearch shows that generative AI tool design matters for learning. The OECD Digital Education Outlook 2026 (https://www.oecd.org/en/publications/oecd-digital-education-outlook-2026_062a7394-en.html) finds that AI tools with clear educational guardrails may support learning outcomes\, while unstructured use of AI risks becoming a shortcut that may hamper genuine learning gains.  Through Cogniti\, U of T is giving instructors control over how AI is used for learning. Cogniti is an AI platform embedded directly in Quercus — no separate accounts required — that lets you shape AI interactions around your course content\, your learning objectives\, and your pedagogical approach\, with built-in safety features to protect student wellbeing. In this session\, you’ll explore how Cogniti enables you to: • Deploy course-specific generative AI learning experiences in Quercus that reflect your syllabus\, learning objectives\, and content • Guide students toward productive learning rather than answer-seeking • Monitor how students are engaging with AI in your course Whether you’re curious about AI’s potential\, concerned about its risks\, or ready to experiment\, we’ll work through how Cogniti can fit within your teaching context. More CTSI Cogniti Programming (https://teaching.utoronto.ca/teaching-uoft-genai/genai-programming/)
