This workshop introduces Discernment\, one of four core competencies in the AI Fluency Framework\, as a structured way to evaluate AI-generated content across three dimensions: factual accuracy\, quality of reasoning\, and framing. Participants will practice applying this lens to real examples\, moving beyond simple fact-checking to identify subtler errors in logic and perspective. \nThis session can be applied toward Competency 3 of the Teaching and Generative AI Pathways Program and is open to Rutgers University staff and instructors of all ranks\, appointment types\, and disciplines. \nFacilitator: Joanne Dera (Science Librarian) \nREGISTER \nThis is an online event. Event URL will be sent via registration email.
