The Center for Engaged Learning Research Seminar on Rethinking Engaged Learning in the Age of GenAI will support multi-institutional research addressing and surrounding this theme over two academic calendar years, with three one-week summer meetings on the Elon University campus. Participants will collaborate on active research over the entire period. These multi-institutional collaborations will enable larger scale studies and explorations of the impact of different institutional contexts.

Selected applicants will meet on Elon’s campus during the following weeks:

  • Year 1: July 5-10, 2026: Participants will meet at Elon University to collaboratively develop and plan multi-institutional research projects to be conducted throughout the following year. These research cohorts will enable larger scale studies and explorations of the impact of different institutional and disciplinary contexts.
  • Year 2: June 27-July 2, 2027: Participants will meet at Elon University to share their initial multi-institutional results and to plan a more sharply focused research agenda for the research cohort for year two.
  • Year 3: June 25-30, 2028: Participants will reconvene at Elon University to share their year-two results, to plan continuations of their work, and to participate in the Conference on Engaged Learning (June 26-27, 2028), with a conference strand on the seminar theme.
