More than 60 percent of U.S. working-age adults now use generative AI, so the real question for students is no longer whether they will use it, but what it will do to them over time. This resource, designed for any program from business to general education, teaches the habits that make students more capable instead of more dependent. Students choose one major AI tool, such as Claude or ChatGPT, and stay with it throughout, so their work is judged on their framing, checking, and judgment rather than the product name. Built on the AI Engagement Model, they learn calibrated trust, how to avoid the Oracle Trap of uncritical acceptance, and how to preserve their own judgment. Working through a running business case, they frame problems before building, manage AI as part of an evidence team, build, test, and verify, then integrate the evidence, decide, and defend their work. The result is durable AI fluency that transfers to any tool.

Technology projects succeed when sound project management meets smart use of AI, and this resource teaches students both.

They then follow the full project life cycle, from initiating and planning through executing, monitoring and controlling, and closing, while exploring the role of the project manager, the project team, and project management methodology. Throughout, students see how AI tools can enhance efficiency, reduce risk, and improve decision-making. They finish with a practical understanding of how to lead IT projects and sustain change.

Designed for general business undergraduates and MBA students, no advanced programming or math required, AI in Human Working Environments walks through the full development life cycle: identifying a problem, gathering and preparing data, building a custom AI tool, and evaluating its impact.

Information systems professionals solve business problems that rarely have one right answer, so this course emphasizes doing over memorizing. Students begin with how organizations, AI, infrastructure, and security fit together, then model and query data with SQL, automate processes with an instructor-selected programming pathway (VBA, Office Scripts, or Python), and apply descriptive, predictive, prescriptive, and generative analytics to support decisions. A recurring LinkedIn jobs case carries data from the database unit into analytics, and the course closes with web development fundamentals that turn results into an accessible, audience-ready publication. Students leave with a shared business core: the ability to retrieve and prepare reliable data, interpret analysis without overstating it, manage technology and AI risk, and defend a recommendation with evidence.
