Announcement: Dr. Jasmin Cowin selected for the 2024-2025 CETL Faculty Fellowship at Touro University

I am honored to share that I was selected as the recipient of the 2024-2025 CETL Faculty Fellowship at Touro University. This fellowship, effective immediately and running through June 30, 2025, marks a significant milestone in my academic career, allowing me to spearhead an innovative project integrating Artificial Intelligence into our teaching practices.

Under the guidance of Prof. Dr. Shlomo Engelson Argamon, Associate Provost for Artificial Intelligence and Professor of Computer Science at Touro University, I will be developing a faculty development course on AI, set to launch in Spring 2025. This initiative aims to explore how we approach and engage with digital transformation in education.

Throughout the fellowship, I will contribute to the CETL webpage, sharing insights and resources to support my fellow faculty members and peers. Additionally, I will serve on the CETL Faculty Advisory Board, working collaboratively to enhance our collective efforts and drive educational strategies.

As I begin this fellowship, I look forward to sharing the developments and insights gained with our larger Touro University academic community. I anticipate engaging in meaningful conversations and collaborations.

Stay tuned for updates on this initiative, and join me in exploring the potential of AI in shaping the future of education at Touro University.
