From AI Hesitation to AI Innovation: Embracing Transformation

Wednesday, December 03, 2025

Gen AI August CC.png
  • Is your institution still navigating AI hesitancy while others surge ahead? In this on-demand session, Adobe and Justin Hodgson from Indiana University explored how institutions can move beyond the “should we?” and into the “how do we excel?”

     

    This isn't another conversation about AI's risks and rewards. This is your strategic roadmap for building an AI-empowered campus - where faculty, students, and staff don't just use AI, they thrive with it.

     

    We heard from leaders who are getting it right:

    • CIO Vision: Strategic leadership insights on positioning your institution at the forefront of the AI-forward movement

    • Center Director: Campus-wide approaches to building AI literacy and enabling confident adoption across diverse departments

    • Faculty Perspective: Real-world strategies for responsible AI integration in curriculum and classroom practice

    Whether you're just beginning your AI journey or looking to accelerate your institution's transformation, with this on-demand webinar you'll gain practical insights, example frameworks, proven strategies, and the confidence to become a critical part of your institution’s AI-empowered future.

    Stop hesitating. Start empowering.
    All on-demands include closed captioning.

"Presenting my project live on Adobe in front of 200+ educators was nerve-wracking! After a 4-day Adobe Education Institute course on Adobe Express, my lesson roadmap was selected and reviewed live. Speaking up on camera in English was scary—but the trainers’ feedback was incredibly kind and helpful.

Huge thanks to Adobe Education Institute for such an inspiring experience!"
