Presenter: Dr. Lance Eaton, Senior Associate Director of AI in Teaching and Learning at Northeastern University
This session explores how AI can augment, not shortcut, the development of critical reasoning, patient-centered care, and evidence-based decision-making in post-professional and graduate health programs. We’ll consider what it means to partner with students in the age of AI—moving beyond passive adoption toward co-creating learning experiences that demand critical engagement with AI outputs. We’ll explore examples of how AI can support simulation-based learning, prompt richer case-based reasoning, and be integrated into activities that challenge students to evaluate, question, and extrapolate from AI-generated content—not merely consume it. This session invites participants to shape their own next steps: identifying high-impact teaching moves, understanding institutional tools and guardrails, and aligning AI use with core educational outcomes in healthcare—especially where thinking can’t be shortcutted.
