There are many AI tools that can help researchers produce graphs, graphics, and other visualizations of complex data sets. The question hinges on accuracy: can I produce effective visualizations that accurately represent data? In this workshop, we’ll introduce tools available to Towson University along with examples. 

Drop-in at CK404B or attend virtually.

Fix Your Content Day is a 24-hour, global competition where institutions come together annually to improve the accessibility of their digital course content using Blackboard Ally. Every single fix helps remove barriers to learning and creates a more inclusive experience for students. It's also an opportunity to bring colleagues together, build accessibility awareness, and showcase the institution's commitment to inclusive education. 

How do you turn a great idea for a study abroad or away short-term experience into a strong program proposal? In this workshop, experienced faculty leaders will share practical insights from developing and running their own programs. We’ll explore how faculty-led study abroad and away programs are Degree Boost experiences that advance High-Impact global learning, walk through the proposal form and contact‑hour requirements, and give participants dedicated time to build elements of their program step‑by‑step. Come ready to explore possibilities and leave with real progress toward your own faculty‑led program. Breakfast will be served at 9:00 a.m.
