The new publication, 鈥淗uman Wisdom for the Age of AI: A Field Guide to Cultivating Essential Skills,鈥� helps students cultivate the human skills they need to thrive in a digital world, whether working with AI technologies or learning independently of those tools. The guide includes engaging and fun exercises on curiosity, critical and deep thinking, creativity, ethical perspectives, communication and relational skills, among others.

Like the 2024 and 2025 editions, this year鈥檚 guide is provided to students and institutions free of charge and is available for download at: .

The guide draws on 10 voices across centuries and cultures 鈥� from Aristotle, Cicero and Descartes to Mencius and Ptahhotep 鈥� whose enduring insights into human judgment, creativity, ethics and wisdom take on new urgency as AI reshapes how we learn and work.

鈥淲e are excited to share this hands-on field guide with teachers and learners around the world,鈥� said 福利亚洲国产精品 President Connie Book. 鈥淲e must not lose sight of the enduring principles that have always driven human progress. This publication bridges the gap between rapidly expanding algorithmic power and the timeless wisdom of the liberal arts. It empowers students to harness AI technologies where appropriate without sacrificing the empathy, judgment and creative autonomy that only a human mind can provide.鈥�

鈥淎s artificial intelligence reshapes how we learn, work and create, the essential skills students need are not disappearing鈥攖hey are evolving,鈥� said AAC&U President Lynn Pasquerella. 鈥淐apacities such as critical inquiry, ethical reasoning, creativity and communication are more important than ever because they enable students to engage AI thoughtfully, question its outputs and apply knowledge with judgment and purpose. This guide underscores a central truth: in an age of increasingly powerful machines, the learning outcomes of a liberal education are the foundation for meaningful and responsible innovation.鈥�

鈥淭hrough our research at The Princeton Review, we consistently see that students are both excited by AI and uncertain about how to use it well,鈥� said Editor-in-Chief Rob Franek. 鈥淲hat they鈥檙e really looking for is guidance. This field guide meets that moment by translating big ideas鈥攍ike critical thinking, creativity and ethical decision-making鈥攊nto practical habits students can use every day.鈥�

In response to requests from faculty and staff, the new publication includes:

• A set of downloadable with group exercises, worksheets and discussion questions
• An online that allows students to reflect on how they are using AI in their studies and their level of reliance on AI tools.

Students, faculty and staff at more than 4,000 colleges, universities, schools and organizations around the world have accessed the publications. The guide鈥檚 has provided information to more than 87,000 users in 170 countries.

The guide is authored by three 福利亚洲国产精品 leaders and researchers: Daniel J. Anderson, special assistant to the president and former vice president for communications; Lee Rainie, director of the Imagining the Digital Future Center; and Janna Anderson, professor of communications and co-founder and senior researcher for the Imagining the Digital Future Center. They worked in partnership with 24 consulting scholars from 10 countries.

Those who knew Allison Keill remember her passion for education and mentoring and how she touched the lives of every student she encountered in the Dr. Jo Watts Williams School of Education.

That legacy will live on in the Allison E. Keill Memorial Global Engagement Endowed Scholarship that has been established by Keill鈥檚 husband, Chad Esposito, of Burlington, North Carolina, along with gifts from dozens of friends and family members who have come together to honor her memory.

Keill, 50, served as director of the Curriculum Resources Center and associate librarian in the Dr. Jo Watts Williams School of Education before passing away March 25, 2026.

鈥淎llison brought light and love to all in the Dr. Jo Watts Williams School of Education,鈥� said Dean Ann Bullock. 鈥淗er genuine, welcoming spirit and boundless sense of adventure make this scholarship听a fitting tribute to an educator who impacted lives far beyond the classroom.鈥�

The scholarship will assist students with financial need in the Watts Williams School of Education who are pursuing study abroad or Study USA opportunities.

Esposito remembers his wife as a woman of extraordinary grace, strength and heart who loved her family deeply.

鈥淎llison was selfless and giving in every sense of the word鈥攁lways putting others before herself and offering love, comfort and kindness so freely to everyone fortunate enough to know her,鈥� he said. 鈥淪he had a way of making people feel seen, cared for and important, and her beautiful smile could light up even the darkest room. Allison听will be remembered for her positivity, intelligence, resilience and unwavering spirit.鈥�

Keill was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in September 2024 yet refused to let the disease define her, Esposito said.

鈥淓ven in the face of unimaginable hardship, Allison remained inspiring, strong, thoughtful and full of love,鈥� he said. 鈥淪he met life鈥檚 challenges with courage and dignity, and she taught those around her what it truly means to live with purpose, gratitude and grace. Her family was the center of her world, and she poured her heart into every moment spent with them. She also understood deeply that nothing in this life is guaranteed, and because of that, she embraced each moment with love, laughter and intention.鈥�

Esposito hopes the scholarship will inspire students to embrace education and global exploration.

鈥淓ndowing this scholarship ensures that Allison鈥檚 legacy continues in a way that reflects who she was鈥攁 compassionate educator, an inspiring mentor and someone who saw the world as a classroom without borders,鈥� he said. 鈥淎llison had a genuine love of learning, not only through books and teaching, but through experiencing the world firsthand. She believed that understanding different cultures and perspectives made people better educators, better thinkers and better human beings.鈥�

Born in Summit, New Jersey, Keill grew up in Westport, Connecticut, and Brunswick County, North Carolina. After graduating high school from the North Carolina School of Science and Mathematics, she earned her bachelor鈥檚 degree from UNC-Greensboro, and a master鈥檚 degree in library science from East Carolina University.

The event had been in the making since the previous fall. The college鈥檚 Bicentennial committee 鈥� led by George Troxler, then a professor of history specializing in American colonial and revolutionary history 鈥� was deep in planning, threading the spirit of 1776 through everything from athletics to the arts.

An October 1975 weekend had offered a preview of what was to come. The cross country team carried the Bicentennial flag to Hillsborough, North Carolina, and returned to campus along a route used in the 18th century. They formally handed the flag to Elon President J. Fred Young at a ceremony in front of Alamance Building. A golf tournament at Alamance Country Club, a dance at Alumni Gym and a sunrise flag-raising at Elon鈥檚 ROTC site all added to the weekend鈥檚 festive atmosphere. Bicentennial meals with period-appropriate recipes were offered for $2, a fitting nod to colonial-era frugality.

But it was Festival Day on April 10, 1976, that brought everything together. The morning opened with a parade through downtown Elon College, featuring the Alamance- Caswell Marine Color Guard, the Western High School Band, local Boy Scouts and the Elon Middle School Drum and Fife Corps, among others. From Whitley Auditorium, a one-act comedy titled 鈥淢idnight Ride of Paul Revere鈥� drew audiences into the revolutionary spirit of the occasion.

The afternoon unfolded across campus in a joyful sprawl of activity. A picnic on the north end of campus gave way to an art and photography exhibition at Harden Center. The Elon College Concert Band performed on the North Campus lawn. And at 1 p.m., the day鈥檚 most enduring ceremony took place: the dedication of a new campus gazebo. Mayor T. L. Smith of Elon College and President Young offered remarks, and the college鈥檚 concert band and choir provided special music, with a prayer led by the Rev. Clyde Fields.

Later in the afternoon, Bicentennial games were held on the soccer field, followed by a street dance featuring the Western Express Jazz Ensemble and the Western Kids, with the Elon College Middle School Cloggers adding a distinctly local flavor to the festivities.

鈥淭his joint celebration of the Bicentennial and the town鈥檚 birthday concluded with dancing in the street,鈥� The Pendulum, Elon鈥檚 student newspaper, reported at the time.

The celebrations reflected a broader truth about Elon College in 1976: The campus and the surrounding community were deeply intertwined. Festival Day wasn鈥檛 simply a college event.

It was a town celebration, and Elon was proud to host it.

Community-based learning (CBL) gives students opportunities to address real-world challenges by partnering with local community organizations. Through their experience leading a community-engaged unit in environmental studies, Merricks and Bitting recognized that little research directly examines how CBL affects students from historically underrepresented STEM backgrounds (e.g., women, students of color, and first-generation college students).

Working with Akman, an expert in systematic reviews, the team analyzed existing research on whether CBL experiences influence students鈥� pursuit of STEM majors or minors, their career intentions, and their sense of belonging in STEM fields. From more than 500 publications published between 1999 and 2024, the authors identified nine studies that met the criteria for inclusion.

Their analysis revealed a major gap in the literature. Few studies systematically examined the impact of CBL pedagogies in STEM. Most did not compare CBL with other teaching approaches, making it difficult to draw strong conclusions about its effectiveness. In addition, only a small number of studies analyzed outcomes across demographic groups such as race/ethnicity, first-generation status, or gender. The authors conclude that more rigorous research is needed, including studies that compare CBL with other pedagogies and systematically examine outcomes across different student populations.
