Harnessing GenAI in Teaching and Learning with TLEF Support

July 17, 2025

The use of Generative AI (GenAI) is increasing across UBC’s academic landscape, as instructors and students experiment with its potential to enrich and transform teaching and learning. 

To help advance this exploration, the 2025/26 Large Teaching and Learning Enhancement Fund (TLEF) funding round featured a special call supporting UBC Vancouver teams in developing GenAI-focused projects. As a result, 11 new Large TLEF Transformation projects received funding this year, alongside two returning projects now in their second year of exploring GenAI. Each project brings a unique lens to GenAI integration, together reflecting the breadth of innovative thinking taking shape across the university as faculty engage with this rapidly evolving technology.
