AI Faculty Fellow at CSCC

The AI Faculty Fellow position at Columbus State Community College is an institutional leadership role, not a research sinecure. It means working directly with faculty to integrate AI thoughtfully into their teaching; developing policy frameworks that help the institution move forward responsibly; building professional development programs that meet faculty where they are; and designing student-facing AI literacy initiatives that prepare learners for a world where these tools are already present.

The work spans the full institution, from course redesign consultations to all-college workshops, from assessment rubric development to AI use policy drafting. It also means building things. When a pedagogical need arises that no existing tool meets, the answer is sometimes to build it yourself.

The projects below represent a cross-section of that work: a public resource hub for higher education educators, an in-progress classroom case study, and a data visualization pipeline built for criminology students.

Case Study

Vibe Coding a Corporate Fine Equivalence Calculator

How a single AI-assisted tool eliminated calculation errors for 70 students in a Sociology of Deviance course — freeing them to focus on what actually matters: critical analysis of corporate accountability.

Key result: 10 students lost points before. Zero after.
