As generative AI becomes increasingly integrated into our personal and professional lives, its value lies not in replacing our thinking, but in reshaping it. This session invites participants to explore how AI can extend human potential\u2014enhancing how we learn, create, and make decisions\u2014when used with intention and care.&nbsp; Drawing on practical examples from teaching, leadership, and analytics, we\u2019ll examine what it means to be truly AI-literate: understanding what AI can do, what it can\u2019t, and how to remain critically engaged in the process. Far from dumbing us down, AI challenges us to sharpen the very skills we value most in experiential education\u2014problem framing, critical thinking, and persuasive communication. In an age where frictionless access to information is a given, the differentiator is not what we know, but how we think. Join us as we rethink intelligence\u2014not as a solo endeavor, but as a dynamic partnership between humans and machines.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:10%\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns are-vertically-aligned-center has-ast-global-color-4-background-color has-background is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-7387b849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"138\" height=\"138\" src=\"https:\/\/techx.wfu.edu\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/97864b2c84894be096b238e560137f16.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1712\" style=\"width:300px\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--60);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--60);flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Shannon McKeen<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Executive Director of the Center for Analytics Impact; Professor of the Practice, School of Business<\/strong>\u00a0| Wake Forest University\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Shannon McKeen is a Professor of Practice and Executive Director for the Center of Analytics Impact at Wake Forest University&#8217;s School of Business.
