SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:From Passive Prompts to Active Agents: Transforming Campus Workflows with M-Connectors
DESCRIPTION:Move beyond static prompt-and-response AI. This hands-on workshop introduces M-Connectors—a Model Context Protocol (MCP) integration that connects U-M GPT directly to live campus systems\, external APIs\, and active data repositories. Discover how to transform GenAI into active agents capable of querying live data\, maintaining deep context\, and performing authorized tasks across tools like Canvas\, Google Workspace\, Slack\, and Zoom—all within U-M's secure enterprise privacy boundary.\n\nWhat You'll Learn\n\n--The MCP Advantage: How M-Connectors query live campus systems without custom code while preserving U-M enterprise data security.\n--Instructor Workflows: Automate Canvas readiness checks\, synthesize lecture transcripts into study guides\, generate 4-tier rubrics\, and draft personalized student reminders based on live gradebook data.\n--Administrative Workflows: Extract insights from Google Forms/Sheets\, summarize Zoom meetings and Slack threads into action items\, and query active Drive folders to draft communications.\n--The 15 Launch Connectors: Explore core connector capabilities across U-M GPT and Maizey to build your own custom productivity workflows.\n\nAudience: Students\, Instructors\, Staff\n\nRecommended Prerequisites:\nA or B:\nA. Introduction to GenAI: Unpacking Key Concepts (Mini Workshop)\nB. Generative AI Basics (Full Workshop)\nC or D:\nC. Critical Challenges in GenAI: Exploring Privacy\, Ethical Implications\, Integrity\, and Bias (Mini Workshop)\nD. Generative AI Basics (Full Workshop)\nE or F:\nE. From Basics to Brilliance: Prompt Engineering with U-M GPT (Mini Workshop)\nF. Generative AI with U-M GPT (Full Workshop)\n\nZoom join URL: https://umich.zoom.us/j/98888582214\n\nThis workshop is part of the new ITS Generative AI Mini-Workshop Series designed to offer a rich\, engaging experience in just 60 minutes per session. With an expanded range of topics\, these ten workshops are tailored to meet the varied interests and needs of instructors\, staff\, and students.\n\nParticipants will be able to earn new badges for participating in the series. Visit the ITS Generative AI Workshop Series page to learn more about the series.
