 \n\nThis research-grounded guide helps college educators use generative AI 
 to strengthen\, not sideline\, what they already know about effective 
 teaching. Drawing on decades of experience in faculty development and 
 learning science\, Ludwig and Zakrajsek propose a three-stage progression 
 model-Adapt\, Create\, Embed-to help faculty from any discipline 
 thoughtfully incorporate AI into their teaching. Rather than chasing the 
 latest tech tools\, this book focuses on how AI can deepen student learning 
 by enhancing time-tested frameworks such as TILT\, Universal Design for 
 Learning\, Bloom's Taxonomy\, and Backward Design\, all summarized in a 
 handy appendix. Each chapter includes classroom-tested examples\, 
 reflection prompts\, and activities ready for individual exploration or 
 group discussion. Whether you're skeptical\, curious\, or cautiously 
 optimistic\, this book offers a clear\, practical path to using AI as a 
 partner\, not a replacement\, in ways that support students and 
 reinvigorate teaching.
