St. Bonaventure University’s School of Education will host a spring forum for educators, educators in training, and counselors on the impact of AI and how to engage with it responsibly.
Educators can participate virtually or on campus in the forum, “Think Before You Prompt: AI, Bias and Academic Integrity.”
The online session will be held from 5 to 6 p.m. Tuesday, April 8. The on-campus forum will be held from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, April 9, in the University Conference Center in Doyle Hall. Please register for either session by April 1 at www.sbu.edu/SpringForum2025.
The guest speaker for both sessions is author, educator and instructional designer Angela Stockman, a faculty member at Daemen University and a leading voice in innovative writing instruction.
In each session, Stockman will explore how AI aligns with our values as educators, as well as the moral and ethical implications — both positive and negative — of its use in learning and beyond.
Stockman’s research interests lie at the intersection of multiliteracy instruction, educational leadership, and systems change. She spent 15 years in public education and has been a higher education instructor for more than a decade.
Stockman served as a literacy specialist for the Western New York Regional Information Center, founded the Western New York Young Writers’ Studio, worked as an instructional designer and executive director of Distance Education at Daemen University, and currently teaches in their graduate school of education.
As an international consultant, Stockman leads system-wide initiatives in curriculum design, competency-based grading, and pedagogical documentation. She has authored seven books and numerous articles on school culture, inclusive learning design, and multimodal composition.
The forum is free and will also feature refreshments during the on-campus gathering and prizes for both the virtual and on-campus sessions.
