Source Code Session #4: Integrating AI into Applied Mathematical Problem Solving

LIMITED

Monday July 13, 2026 10:45am - 12:00pm EDT

SC Governor's School for Science and Mathematics Building (GSSM)

Limited Capacity seats available

*This is a cohort session. Following one morning session on Monday, July 13, this group will meet every afternoon to continue its exploration and learning as a cohort.*

AI models—such as Google Gemini, Perplexity, ChatGPT, Claude, etc. — offer teachers the opportunity to quickly review and research standard mathematics topics taught in high school and college courses. In this session, participants will have the opportunity to compare classical solution methods with AI-generated solutions, and in the process educators will gain a deeper understanding of the relative strengths of each of these approaches. The session will illustrate how AI resources can be useful as collaborative partners, offering inspiration for new methodologies, suggesting generalizations, and identifying similar problems to enrich the learning process.

Expansion Pack Session #7X (Part 1): How to get students to think critically about AI

LIMITED

Monday July 13, 2026 1:15pm - 2:30pm EDT

SC Governor's School for Science and Mathematics Building (GSSM)

Limited Capacity seats available

In the Afternoon Workshop we will provide:1. An interactive session to help participants adapt the materials of one CyberEd module (again, likely the AI bias module) for their own classroom use;2. A presentation of our new AI tool that visualizes students' own online data and how AI makes inferences about that data;3. A brainstorm session about how we can build a new education module around this tool (providing a preview of the "CyberEd 2.0" project).

Speakers

Dr. Bart Knijnenburg

Dean‘s Professor (Associate Professor) in Human-Centered Computing, School of Computing, Clemson University

Our online lives are full of small but difficult decisions. Which app should I install? Should I post this on Facebook or not? Which YouTube video should I watch? What will this e-commerce website do with my personal information? In my research I try to understand the psychological... Read More →
