Exploring Gemini Notebook and Claude Projects

The AI, Teaching, and Scholarship series creates a forum for sharing ideas and exploring questions about the ways faculty are engaging with AI in their courses, scholarship, and creative work. The sessions are intended to highlight a range of experiences and perspectives, while generating dialogue that broadens awareness and understanding. The series aims to create opportunities for faculty to learn from one another as they navigate a rapidly changing educational and scholarly landscape.

Google’s Gemini Notebook and Anthropic’s Claude Projects use Retrieval-Augmented Generation to help ground LLM responses in user-uploaded content such as research articles, course materials, and other resources.

In this session, Douglas Johnson, dean of academic and curricular affairs and William R. Kenan Jr. Professor of Psychological and Brain Sciences, and Joel Sommers, director of the natural sciences and mathematics division and professor of computer science, will discuss their experiences using these tools to support student learning in coursework and in research.

Lunch will be available for this session. Please register, so we can plan for an appropriate amount of food.
