Presenter: Josephine Pino, Faculty Biology
Summary
In this presentation, PCC Biology Instructor Josephine Pino shares how the rapid rise of AI tools changed her flipped classroom approach and forced a redesign of course expectations. Grounded in research from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM), she explores the 7 Principles of Effective and Equitable Teaching. She addresses common challenges like online cheating, AI-generated assignments, and student confusion about open-note policies. Rather than policing technology, Pino demonstrates how to adapt course design to focus on transparent expectations, student self-regulation, and authentic assessment. She provides practical tools for integrating AI safely while supporting Universal Design for Learning (UDL) and accessibility across all disciplines.

PCC offers this limited open forum as an extension of the respectful, well-reasoned discourse we expect in our classroom discussions. As such, we welcome all viewpoints, but monitor comments to be sure they stick to the topic and contribute to the conversation. We will remove them if they contain or link to abusive material, personal attacks, profanity, off-topic items, or spam. This is the same behavior we require in our hallways and classrooms. Our online spaces are no different.
