The goal of the workshop is straightforward but ambitious: we will collaboratively design a practical classroom exercise that faculty can adopt and adapt for their own intelligence studies curricula.
Please come prepared to share exercises that already work for you in a traditional format. These should be exercises that help students learn how to carry out core analytic tasks — from collection and synthesis to structured analysis and the production of intelligence briefings — while maintaining the tradecraft standards and critical thinking the profession demands.
Our students will enter a community where AI-augmented analysis is the norm, not the exception. Intelligence studies programs may lack a structured, tradecraft-grounded exercise for teaching students how to use these tools responsibly and effectively. We have an opportunity to fill that gap together.
