  • From Dartmouth to Now: Headlines from AI History that Set the Stage for Today

    Presenter: AI Symposium Planning Committee
    Craven Lounge

    Welcome from the Regional Perspectives on AI Symposium Organizing Committee. Before the day turns to practical questions, how AI is reshaping teaching, research, and administrative work across our campuses, we want to pause and take stock of how we got here. This opening session walks through ten headline-making moments in AI history, from the field’s […]

    Preliminary Investigations of Transformer Models for Bit-Domain Audio Synthesis and Timbre

    Presenter: Daniel McKemie
    Morris Hall 104

    I will be presenting on preliminary research findings of new work centered on the associations between Bit-Domain Audio Synthesis and timbre generation. Bit-Domain Audio Synthesis describes a class of techniques in which PCM audio samples are produced by closed-form integer expressions. These techniques include arithmetic and bitwise operations evaluated against an incrementing sample index. For […]

  • AI Sandbox

    Presenters: Tera Doty-Blance, Megan Palmer, Sarah Rhodes, Alayna Vander Veer
    Le Cafe

    The AI Sandbox is not a presentation or workshop, but rather a curated space where you can go to explore different AI tools. Volunteers from SUNY Oneonta’s Faculty Center and Milne Library have created handouts that list some tools to try, and faculty and staff will be available to talk about AI, integration into various […]

    Layers of trust: AI assisted data management, transcription, and discovery in an audio digitization project.

    Presenter: Ed Beck
    Morris Hall 130

    Cooperstown Graduate Program and Milne Library recently digitized a large collection of reel-to-reel historical recordings. The resulting collection posed a scale problem that no small archival team could manage by hand: metadata in inconsistent formats across systems, thousands of untranscribed recordings, and for many items, incomplete information of what the tape actually contained. This case […]

    AI as a Course Design Collaborator

    Presenter: Allene Slating
    Morris Hall 104

    How can AI meaningfully support course design without replacing the expertise of faculty and instructional designers? This session shares a practical, real-world example of using AI as a collaborator in the design and development of a self-paced Introduction to OSCQR online course. The presenter will walk through how AI was used to support key stages […]

  • The Accidental Developer: How I Built Useful Tools Without Knowing How to Code

    Presenter: Jacqueline (Jacs) Bennett
    Morris Hall Craven Lounge

    Ever wanted a searchable database of every exam question you’ve ever written (or some other custom database)? Or wanted to estimate your personal digital footprint quickly? Or wished you could caption a video locally by dropping it into a folder and waiting a bit, no fuss beyond a one-time setup? This summer, I built exactly […]

    Racing Ahead, Flying Blind: Closing the Gap Between AI Adoption and Ethical Guidance in Graduate Education

    Presenter: Gina Solano
    Morris Hall 130

    Artificial intelligence is no longer on the horizon of higher education. It has arrived. With 96.8% of graduate students already using AI tools and 61.3% doing so weekly or more, faculty are navigating urgent, practical questions: What are students actually doing with AI? Where does ethical use end and academic misconduct begin? How can faculty […]

  • Annotation and the power of teaching a process

    Presenter: Karl Seeley
    Morris Hall 130

    This paper reports on an informal experiment in an economic history course in the Spring 2026 semester. I used physical annotation on a printed text as the key component of a structure for simultaneously avoiding overreliance on LLM’s and fostering stronger student engagement with course material and deeper learning. Compared to other pedagogical approaches, this […]

    Beyond Content: Human-Centered Learning Design in the Age of AI

    Presenter: Pauline L. Stamp
    Morris Hall 104

    Artificial intelligence is rapidly reshaping higher education, yet much of the current conversation remains centered on tools, detection, and delivery modalities rather than the deeper conditions that drive meaningful learning. This session explores how AI is transforming the role of faculty from content deliverers to architects of human-centered learning experiences. Drawing from real-world teaching practice […]

  • Against AI: Approaches to Preserving Student Learning

    Presenters: Racheal Fest, Bradley J. Fest, Alanna E.F. Rudzick
    Le Cafe

    In this session, faculty from the humanities and social sciences at SUNY Oneonta and Hartwick College will share approaches to preserving student learning in the age of AI. Strategies include developing in-class assessment practices, updating assignments to include critical AI literacy, creating an analog classroom to better foster discussion and knowledge co-construction, and inviting students […]
