How to Use AI: Unlocking the Power of Artificial Intelligence in Your Daily Life

In this fast-paced, hands-on workshop, participants will explore the fundamentals of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and discover practical ways to apply AI tools and technologies in everyday life. The session will provide a clear understanding of how AI works and highlight the many ways it can simplify tasks, improve efficiency, and even add a fun element to work and personal routines.

HOST: Jen Hazel has been a Professor of English at Owens Community College for 18 years, and she hopes to be here for at least another 18!

In addition to her role as a Professor, she has led many projects and initiatives over the years such as revamping the advising program; creating a new student orientation experience; developing campus student mentoring; leading a team in the creation of a co-requisite Composition I course with workshops for educators; and most recently, in conjunction with the manager of tutoring, implemented an embedded tutoring pilot Jen designed; created the Oregon Road Film Series, which includes the ORFS Film Challenge, where Rob Thomas is the co-pilot; leads a team of faculty to publish The Silo, a creative work journal for students and faculty, every spring; and finally, with the Library Director, developed and leads The BIG Read, which raises awareness of different perspectives through literature and accompanying activities across campus and in the surrounding communities.

Jen is also the Humanities Dept. Faculty Fellow and designed three new certificates that began last fall, one of which is the Media Influencer Certificate! Even with all these projects, according to Jen, nothing is more amazing than working with students to help them find their “Ah-ha!” moment.
