πŸŽ‰ Congratulations to our IDT student, Evelyn! πŸŽ‰

We're thrilled to celebrate Evelyn on starting her new position as a General Education Teacher at Anne Carlsen Center! After working with ACC in various roles over the years, Evelyn is continuing to grow with an organization dedicated to creating meaningful opportunities for children and young adults with diverse abilities and support needs.

Evelyn brings her experience in education, instructional design, and classroom support into this new role, and most importantly, continues her commitment to learning from and advocating for the students she works with.

Congratulations, Evelyn, we're so proud to have you as part of our UND IDT community! πŸ’™

🌟 As summer winds down, we're kicking things off with a Student Spotlight: Sara! 🌟

We're proud to celebrate Sara, a current student in our UND IDT family! Sara is currently an Instructor in the Occupational Therapy department at UND, where she teaches, supports student recruitment, and provides undergraduate academic advisement, all while still practicing as an Occupational Therapist in the clinic one day a week. Talk about wearing many hats! πŸ‘

Coming from an OT background rather than education, Sara found the IDT program gave her exactly what she needed: a structure for designing instruction that's genuinely meaningful for her students. She's loved being able to apply what she learns directly to the courses she's currently teaching, turning classroom theory into real, immediate impact.

Her advice for anyone teaching in higher education without a background in education? IDT is for you. As Sara puts it: "The IDT program is a fun, creative, and versatile program that truly puts both students in the program and those they will teach at the heart of the learning process."

Thank you, Sara, for being such an inspiring part of our IDT community! πŸ’™

πŸŽ‰ Proud moment for our IDT program! Two of our faculty members are presenting their research at the 28th International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction (HCI 2026) in Montreal, Canada β€” showcasing how our program is contributing to global conversations on human-AI interaction. πŸŒπŸ€–

Dr. Woei Hung presents "Distributed Cognition on Steroids in the Era of AI," exploring how Generative AI is reshaping distributed cognition. As GenAI puts powerful collective intelligence at our fingertips, his talk asks: does AI expand human thinking, or take it over?

Tugba Boz presents (virtually) "Exploring Human-AI Collaboration in Rural Classrooms: Insights from the Khanmigo Pilot Study in a Rural School District," sharing findings from an ongoing pilot bringing Khan Academy's AI tutor into grades 3–12 math classrooms facing teacher shortages and limited resources.

Congratulations to both on representing our IDT community on the international stage! πŸ‘

UND Instructional Design & Technology at IgniteND 2026

On June 3, Dr. Tugba Boz presented her session at the IgniteND 2026 Conference at Valley City State University, engaging K-12 teachers, administrators, and technology coordinators.

Her presentation focused on why AI literacy should be taught before students and educators use AI, with an emphasis on responsible and thoughtful AI use in K-12 classrooms. Dr. Boz introduced key areas of AI understanding, including perception, representation and reasoning, learning, natural interaction, and societal impact.

The session included interactive activities where participants worked in groups to identify what counts as AI and explored classroom-friendly tools and platforms, including Quick, Draw! Dr. Boz concluded the session with an activity focused on how educators can address students’ misconceptions about AI.

We are proud to see UND IDT contributing to important conversations about AI literacy, responsible technology use, and K-12 teaching and learning.
