Virginia AI Symposium: Advancing Teaching and Learning in the Age of Generative AI

Friday, January 23, 2026

Join educators from across Virginia for a day-long symposium on advancing teaching and learning in the age of generative AI. Through a keynote, interactive sessions, and research presentations, participants will explore emerging research, develop practical strategies for navigating GenAI in their teaching, and consider when and how GenAI can meaningfully support student learning. The symposium emphasizes ethical and responsible use of GenAI, sharing adaptable teaching practices, and building a network of educators committed to thoughtful innovation. Participants will leave with concrete tools, resources, and connections to continue this work beyond the event.

This event features both an in-person and a virtual track. Registration is separate, and participants are welcome to sign up for one or both. In-person attendance will be capped at 150 participants. The morning keynote will be livestreamed, and while both tracks offer a similar schedule, there are a few differences.
