Over the past two years, generative AI has blazed its way on to college campuses, first in the students' hands and increasingly in the hands of administrators and instructors to improve campus operations and enrollment management, as well as teaching and learning. One of the greatest challenges of using generative AI in teaching is providing students with skills without interrupting the process of learning or introducing errors or misinformation. The University of Texas at Austin is in the initial stages of launching a custom GPT model, UT Sage, which serves as a tutor of sorts for students who need help related to a specific course. In this episode of Voices of Student Success, Julie Schell, assistant vice provost of academic technology at UT Austin, shares the inspiration behind the tool, her work with AI in the classroom and teaching the ethics of AI use. Hosted by Inside Higher Ed Student Success Reporter Ashley Mowreader. This episode is sponsored by KI. Read a transcript of the podcast here.

Former President Donald Trump is in Milwaukee this week for the “Republican National Convention”, just days after being injured following an assassination attempt during a Pennsylvania campaign rally. What, if any, impact will the assassination attempt have on Trump's current Presidential bid? We discuss with Global News Washington Correspondent, Reggie Cecchini. Next, could “A.I.” be part of your ‘treatment' the next time you require a medical procedure? We discuss the growing use of Artificial Intelligence in medicine, in particular detecting disease, with Dr. Ted Jablonski, our “on-call” family physician. And finally, we had a reprieve from the brutally hot temperatures over the weekend, but the mercury will rise again later this week. The intense heat can be particularly hard on our 4-legged friends to the point of being down-right dangerous. We took the opportunity to get some ‘summer weather' pet safety tips from Dr. Julie Schell, Veterinarian at “Bow Bottom Vets”.
We begin with our weekly conversation with Mayor Jyoti Gondek. This time out, the Mayor gives us her thoughts on the Provincial Election, specifically, what she believes the top priorities should be for the UCP Government when it comes to the City of Calgary. Have heard of ‘Birth Tourism'? While it's not a ‘new' trend it's garnered more attention in the past few years and now Health Care Professionals are looking for ways to address the issue. We tackle the topic with Dr. Simrit Brar, OB-GYN at the Foothills Medical Centre. Finally, CPR is standard for us humans, but would you know how to perform CPR on your pet? We discuss the steps you can take if your furry friends is facing a health emergency with Dr. Julie Schell from the “Bow Bottom Veterinary Hospital”.
We begin with a new study on homeownership in Canada – which indicates millions of Canadians believe they will be in the rental market forever. We get details on the study with Romana King, Senior Finance Editor with “Finder.com”. Next, we learn about a new ‘home grown' cancer and cardiovascular screening pilot program that's being called a potential game-changer. We speak with Mike Kuzmickas, CEO of “Ichor Health”. Then we look at the unique health considerations for our pets during the summer months – from fleas and ticks to extreme heat. Tips on how to keep your pet safe and healthy all season long from Calgary-based Veterinarian, Dr. Julie Schell. Finally, time to get ‘back in the saddle' for another edition of Stampede but, will this Stampede be as ‘wild' as ‘pre-pandemic' versions? We check in with Dave Howard from “The Event Group” to hear how this year's version of the Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth compares to previous years in terms of the corporate parties planned for the 10 day event.

Then we head stateside for a conversation with Reggie Cecchini – Global News Washington Correspondent. Reggie breaks down the campaign moves of both President Donald Trump – and Joe Biden – as we are now one week away from the Federal Election. And finally – winter weather, Halloween safety and vaccinations….We get some seasonal pet safety tips from local Veterinarian – Dr. Julie Schell.
Julie Schell is the Executive Director of Learning Design, Effectiveness and Innovation at the University of Texas at Austin, and an Assistant Professor of Practice in the Department of Design and the College of Education at UT Austin. Julie and I met a while back, and we did some work together at a fantastic convening at the University of Texas at Austin. I’m thrilled to have her on the show, especially given her focus on teaching and learning design thinking and human-centered design. Design thinking has hit a peak this year based on Google searches, Julie explains, which demonstrates that there’s a lot of interest in the field. Most of the people who are making these searches are unlikely to be formally trained designers, but instead are probably individuals outside the field who are looking for opportunities to innovate. Julie is enthusiastic about these people being able to learn design thinking, and digs into how to go about that in the right way. For example, she points out that when you’re working with someone who doesn’t have a prior knowledge basis for what they’re trying to learn, you can’t expect long-term, sustained, deep learning to occur after learning in an accelerated model. She also emphasizes the importance of humans (and human contact) in learning human-based design. Julie also believes that we have a responsibility to democratize education and strip the elitism from design, and sees part of her role at UT Austin as being exactly that. She talks in our conversation about how she does this and her practice with self-regulated learners who don’t have the privilege of enrolling in graduate programs at the university. Tune in to learn more about all of these topics, as well as what a self-regulated learner is (and why that matters), some ways to facilitate self-regulated design thinking, the importance and four key sources of self-efficacy, and some great resources related to all of these ideas.

Hi there, and welcome to another Wednesday morning and another episode of LIFE WORK BALANCES! Today I sat down with Julie Schell, who is an educational researcher for the Mazur Group at Harvard University. Julie was also my internship class instructor when I was a graduate student at Teachers College, Columbia University. We hadn’t caught […]
In a flipped classroom, instructors typically move information coverage out of the class so that they can better leverage in-class time to address student misunderstandings and misconceptions about subject matter. The most basic iteration of a flipped class is pre-recording lectures on key concepts for students and putting them online for viewing and engagement (e.g., annotation) before class. In this workshop, Dr. Julie Schell will introduce a set of more advanced web-based instructional tools faculty can use to design learning environments that facilitate student engagement with subject matter both in and outside of class. The workshop will feature a live demo of a new web-based classroom response system available to OnRamps faculty. Presented by Dr. Julie Schell, Senior educational Postdoctoral Fellow within the Mazur Group of the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences at Harvard University,
