early introduction to the softwaredesign process and a consideration of ethical issues that are inherent in technology. A widevariety of projects that inevitably result from this process, also give students in class exposure toa wide range of possibilities when it comes to programming and where programming can beapplied, even at their early programmer level. Although this process is intensive and requiressignificant instructor time and was primarily done in classes of up to 43 students, the approachdescribed can be scaled to larger classes through trained teaching assistants and how to approachthis is discussed. The value of increased engagement, continued engagement and learning afterthe end of the course, and, confidence boost overall makes
between the groups and anotable preference for a more structured and practical educational approach, especially amongstudents with a more robust foundational knowledge. This highlights the relevance of personalizedand applied teaching methods in real-world contexts.This approach examines how AI tools can be effectively integrated into an educationalenvironment, preparing students to face future technological challenges with an innovativeperspective on information systems management.Keywords: Artificial Intelligence (AI), Information Systems (IS), Alternative Evaluation,Automatic Code Generation, Operational Efficiency, Decision Making, Automation, AI Ethics,Information Management, AI Tools.IntroductionIn the digital era, Artificial Intelligence

can executean attack on a device and then protect the device from that attack would be something a lot ofstudents who want to advance in security will find enjoyable.” We considered these valuablesuggestions from the students and are planning to address some of the suggestions in the futureteaching of the IoT Security class. Regarding the recommendation to include offensive securitytechniques, we intend to consult with the university’s general counsel to ensure compliance withinstitutional guidelines and ethical standards.Educational Content and Learning Opportunities The course’s structured learning materialsand assignments were deemed extremely helpful. The students praised the clarity and relevanceof the shared slides and the variety of
thatask for a specialty in one area or the other (i.e., UI designer, UX researcher), studentsdemonstrating the ability to do both will make them more marketable and competitive in the job,especially if they are able to do so in an accessibility-first approach. Students were pleased withlearning how to conduct ethical and responsible research while also acquiring skills to translateresearch findings to design solutions. Similar to our findings through the data we collected,Letaw et al. (2022) assert that embedded inclusive design throughout a multi-year studyimproves student retention of inclusive practices and normalizes accessibility within the designprocess. The authors argue that this integration is especially effective when educators
them keep up with the technological changes. Overallmore African American teachers participated over four years. The teachers who participated inthe surveys reported that the program had increased their confidence in research andincorporated STEM in their classrooms. In addition, the program has provided flexibility to theteachers as they start their research two weeks after the students (REUs), which required theteachers to work more at developing their teams.ConfidenceMost of the effects were seen in the teachers' confidence in producing research articles forpublication, understanding research literature, and understanding the ethical issues surroundingresearch. Teachers' confidence levels barely changed between 2019 and 2020 but increased
student-centered approach to teaching and learning. [33].ITL aligns to guidelines provided by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET)[34] to establish that students should be learning engineering in ways that look like the work engineers do([4], [35]). To meet ABET learning objectives and teaching through Inquiry, students work on teams toidentify, design, and solve complex problems and to create ways to test their ideas that meet specificneeds and constraints of health, culture, environment and economics, while communicating effectively todifferent stakeholders and exercising ethical and professional judgments. ABET learning objectives arerepresentative of Inquiry and not Transmission teaching ([4], [14]). Even
