Hello! My name is Sarah Schultz and I serve as the Director of My Spartan Story, MSU’s new co-curricular record. I am elated to be your #ama host for September 30! At MSU, we know students are participating in beyond-the-classroom experiences where learning is occurring such as jobs, leadership positions, student organizations, and more. Beginning this fall, students will be formally recognized for their engagement and learning through My Spartan Story and the Spartan Experience Record, an official MSU document which students can request through the Registrar’s Office alongside their transcript. As a new initiative at MSU, I am happy to answer questions on co-curricular experiences, how you can get involved with My Spartan Story, and all things beyond-the-classroom learning.

Final exam info for courses offering an exam
You may offer a final exam in your course during the semester's exam period, which is held following the last week of classes. Final exams are typically scheduled for the same day, time period, and room as the scheduled course, if possible. According to the MSU Code of Teaching Responsibility, course instructors must include the date and location of any final examination in the syllabus.
You can locate your course's final exam details on the MSU Office of the Registrar website https://reg.msu.edu, either under "Final Exams" within the Instructor Systems menu of the Faculty & Staff section or in the Schedule of Classes entry under the Enrollment & Registration section. Once logged in to Instructor Systems, you can select the semester and course to see your final exam details, as well as a link to correct any errors.
The Instructor Systems will also show you the names of any students with an exam conflict and/or who have three or more exams on the same day. You can encourage students in either situation to contact the Academic Student Affairs Office in their college for help managing conflicts or arranging for an alternate time; the MSU exam policy states that a student can't be required to take more than two exams in one day.
The full MSU final exam policy can be found here, with further details for scheduling exams in classes with different modalities, requesting a different room, the expectation that instructors will be accessible to students via office hours, and other aspects of exam week.

We are writing to invite you to join the pilot program for H5P’s D2L integration and a few special features.
Through CTLI’s Catalyst Innovation Program, we are giving out a limited number of free H5P.com accounts for faculty/grad students for this academic year. This will allow you to create lots of different types of activities, assign them to your students through D2L, have their grades automatically populated in the Gradebook (if desired), and also receive data about how your students interacted with the content.
The D2L H5P basic integration lets you:
Insert activities with one click directly into a D2L course (no more embed codes requiring activities to be public or going through another provider like Pressbooks)
Connect select activities with the D2L Gradebook
+ our subscription also includes these special features:
Detailed reports on how learners interact with the activity, no matter where the H5P activity is in the course (as a topic or in a page)
Let learners resume activities (especially useful for larger content types like Interactive Video/Course Presentation/Interactive Book)
+ Smart Import feature (AI) lets you import audio/text/video and you will get quick transcripts and suggested activities pre-built that will shorten activity creation time (currently only in English, more languages to be added soon).
Any activities you create via our pilot account using Smart AI, for example, can certainly be exported out to a different regular H5P account(s).
Some of you might have also looked into nolej.io recently (very similar to Smart Import), but we have been told that H5P.com is much better with regards to compliance, privacy, security and stability.
You could contact me (gacs@msu.edu) or Shannon Quinn (sdquinn@msu.edu) to request an account, you will be given a form to fill out listing any D2L course shells (development courses or communities would work too) where you would like to test the H5P integration.

AI Commons Bulletin 1/13/2025
Human-curated news about generative AI for Teaching and Learning in Higher Education.
😮 Word of the Day: “AI-giarism”
“The unethical practice of using artificial intelligence technologies, particularly generative language models, to generate content that is plagiarized either from original human-authored work or directly from AI-generated content, without appropriate acknowledgement of the original sources or AI’s contribution.” (Chan, 2024)

💚 H-Net Hosts 2025 AI Symposium: Fear, Faith, and Praxis: Artificial Intelligence in the Humanities and Social Sciences
This year’s theme, “Fear, Faith, and Praxis: Artificial Intelligence, Humanities, and Social Sciences,” focuses on student-centered approaches to the use of AI in pedagogical practice and reassessing previous assumptions about AI. This two-day event will be held on MSU’s campus on Feb 20-21, 2025, and available via live stream on the H-Net Commons.

💬 Try This: Use AI to Make Peer Feedback More Effective
Use this prompt: ‘‘I teach a university class where students work on teams for the semester. You are my assistant, who is going to help me provide formative feedback to my students. I collect peer comments periodically throughout out the semester, and I would like you to summarize the comments into a performance feedback review in a way that is constructive and actionable. Additionally, the students assess themselves and I would like you to compare their responses to the peer feedback. The output should be in the form of a letter, and please exclude anything that is inappropriate for the workplace.’’ [If there are less than 2 comments for a student, please provide generic feedback only.]

🫥 AI’s That Can Read Your Student’s Emotions
Google wants its AI bots to read emotions. Critics point out the dangers from misclassifying user behaviors. AND recent research suggests the science of “universal emotions” is culturally biased.

Human-curated news about generative AI for Teaching and Learning in Higher Education.
💚 Try This: Create Examples for Critical Analysis
Students can use AI to create an example “in the style of” something, and then evaluate the result. For example, Dickens scholar Dan Doughtery offers: “Write a story about a young man falling in love in the style of Charles Dickens’ novel David Copperfield” (Dougherty).

Watch for this in the next year: virtual models of a specific object, person or system updated using real-time data. Imagine it as a tool for the ultimate personalized learning system.

ℹ️ Students See Feedback from a “Calibrated” AI as Helpful
In this example, instructors augmented a general AI tool with research from their discipline and works from previous students (both = 35 million words). Then instructors had the AI tool give feedback on student assignments. The students loved it.
