Research Across the Curriculum is a 3-day professional development program to help faculty integrate information literacy and research skills into their courses. Adjunct and full-time faculty receive a stipend for their participation and are expected to create instructional materials by the end of the third day.

This year's workshop will be held June 1-3, 2026 and will be substantially different from previous years. We'll be going in-depth into information literacy in the age of AI, centering around Mike Caulfield's SIFT method (Stop, Investigate, Find better coverage, Trace claims). Each participant will receive a copy of Verified by Mike Caulfield and Sam Wineburg. We'll talk about ethical issues with AI & education and practice using AI-assisted search to find and evaluate information.

We are able to guarantee space for 8 participants, though we may be able to add more seats as funding and space allow. Priority will be given to faculty members who apply by the May 1 deadline, those who haven't participated before, and those who plan to develop lesson plans, online modules, and/or assignments about AI information evaluation.

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to library@gcc.mass.edu.
