<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">I wanted to share two Winter courses that I think could be great fits for History students who want practical, reflective ways to build AI fluency, strengthen their learning
habits, and tell a sharper story about their skills. We’ve run ARTSCI 150 a few times (both during College Edge and this Autumn) and it’s something I wish I would have had as an A&S student. ARTSCI 250 is a very cool new in-person course, taught by Professor
Anis Bawarshi from English on Ai and Metacognition. It’s going to be a super unique class and we’d love to have more A&S students.
