The Faculty AI Bootcamp: Redesigning Teaching, Learning, and Assessment (IN-PERSON)

Description

A one-day execution-centric bootcamp that converts recognition of AI’s impact on teaching into operational redesign. Participants work through three live builds and a team capstone: a Socratic AI tutor for one concept in their own course, a paired exercise in evaluating and rebutting AI-generated critique, and a discipline-cluster redesign of one current assessment using disclosure and process-trail patterns. The day closes with each participant drafting a defensible governance position for AI use in their courses, and with team pitches to a peer leadership panel. 

The bootcamp draws faculty across disciplines and institutions, with cross-institutional group work designed to surface what is shared and what is discipline-specific in the response to AI. Anchored in five teaching patterns and a minimal three-position governance framework. Participants leave with built artifacts and a four-week implementation commitment. 

Who should attend
  • Faculty in higher education, across disciplines, who teach undergraduate or graduate courses 
  • Department chairs, program directors, and discipline coordinators 
  • Instructional designers and staff of teaching and learning centers 
  • Academic deans, associate deans, and assistant vice presidents for academics 
  • Mid-career educators preparing for institutional leadership in the AI transition 

After the course, participants will be able to: 

  1. Recognize where AI changes the contract between faculty and student, and name what is now actually being assessed in your courses. 
  2. Operate AI as an instrument of teaching by building one working Socratic tutor for a concept in your own course. 
  3. Inhabit the role of evaluator of AI output through the first-critic discipline, building the discriminating judgment that survives the technology. 
  4. Redesign one current assessment using disclosure and process-trail patterns, and write the rubric line that holds the redesign together. 
  5. Draft a defensible governance position on AI use that you can take to your department, college, or institution. 
  6. Leave with a written four-week implementation commitment that turns recognition into changed practice. 

After the course, participants are expected to: 

  1. Execute and fulfill a written four-week implementation commitment that turns classroom recognition into changed academic practice. 
  2. Deploy a live Socratic AI tutor or a redesigned assessment structure in their actual classrooms using disclosure and process trails. 
  3. Advocate for and present an institutional shift (assessment policy, faculty development plan, or governance stance) to senior academic leadership.

Dr. Mario Domingo operates at the intersection of applied AI research, venture-building, executive accountability at national-platform scale, and academic formation in leadership and ethics. He currently serves as Regional Chief Technology Officer of CeQureX. Alongside this role, he holds a portfolio of advisory mandates positioned for the AI-driven transformation now reshaping enterprise, finance, and the public sector: fractional Chief Transformation and Technology Adviser to a major Philippine higher education system, a telecommunications subsidiary, and to a Philippine bank; technology adviser to the Philippine defense establishment on sovereign network architecture; and adviser on AI to senior leadership across multiple organizations. 

His prior executive lineage includes service as Chief Technology Officer and CEO Officer-in-Charge of UBX through November 2025, an early Philippine institutional venture in blockchain and digital finance. Earlier in his career, he architected high-performance computing systems in production at the Cboe/Chi-X global exchanges: market infrastructure where correctness, latency, and trust at machine speed are non-negotiable. 

He founded the Domingo AI Research Center (DARC Labs) in 2016, with work in medical imaging and cancer diagnostics, and co-founded DANATEQ Pte Ltd. in Singapore in 2010, focused on probabilistic AI for telecommunications infrastructure. 

He holds a PhD in Leadership from Ateneo de Manila University (Critical Realism; Virtue Ethics, Deontology, Utilitarianism) and undertook post-graduate study in AI at MIT CSAIL. 

Dr. Domingo is the sole resource person for this bootcamp. The patterns, builds, and frameworks taught in it are his own.
