Spring 2026 Teaching & Learning Reading Group to discuss The Opposite of Cheating: Teaching for Integrity in the Age of AI

The Center for Instructional Excellence (CIE) invites instructors, staff, and graduate students to join Purdue’s teaching and learning reading groups this semester. These reading groups bring together people from Indianapolis and West Lafayette in small groups to discuss how recent books about teaching, learning, and the classroom may inform what they do.

Our book selection for the spring semester is The Opposite of Cheating: Teaching for Integrity in the Age of AI by Tricia Bertram Gallant and David A. Rettinger Online access to the book is available through Purdue Libraries.

Participants will read and discuss the book over three sessions throughout the semester. Sessions will be held both in West Lafayette and virtually through Teams. Participants can choose their date and location according to their schedules for each week:
-Thursdays, 1-2 p.m. Feb. 26, Mar. 26, and Apr. 23 on the West Lafayette location
-Fridays, 1-2 p.m. Feb. 27, Mar. 27, and Apr. 24 virtually through Teams

Those who would like to participate during Spring 2026 should fill out an online questionnaire by Fri., Feb. 13, providing information about interest and availability.

Those who cannot make it this semester but are interested in teaching and learning reading communities, or who have suggestions for future books/topics, should contact Annika Kraft at arkraft@purdue.edu.
