CNU’s Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP) is focused on AI Literacy. This topic includes when and how to use AI effectively and, critically, how to use it ethically and responsibly. It emphasizes the core values of a liberal arts education as an avenue to prepare students for an increasingly AI-influenced world. Technology will always be evolving, but our commitment to the Honor Code is constant and unwavering, and our emphasis on critical thinking and the value of human contribution remains solid.
While AI literacy and fluency will be addressed throughout our campus operations, the QEP must be focused within the bounds of improving specific student learning outcomes and/or student success.
How to Participate
Every member of our campus community will have ample opportunity to participate in the QEP planning process. It’s essential for a wide range of voices and perspectives to be heard and carefully considered in order to determine our approach to the selected AI Literacy topic. Keep an eye out for invitations to Idea Pods and focus groups, surveys, email updates, and opportunities for discussion. Updates and opportunities to participate will be posted on this website as well. You can also contact Lynn Shollen, QEP Director, at qep@cnu.edu.
