AI workshops for teams and courses, run by Naweed.

Thinkaloud gives one person better habits with AI. A workshop gives a team or a cohort the same habits together: a shared name for each slip and agreed rules for which decisions come to a person, practised on your group’s own work.

It grew out of Naweed’s essay, Checkable Reasoning. Read the essay

Workshops Naweed can run

Each one ends with something your group keeps, made from your own work.

  1. Writing an AI policy

    for a course or department

    For universities and colleges

    policy-draft.md

    • AI can help with: ideas, feedback on a draft, explaining a hard idea
    • The student’s own: the argument, the analysis, the final words
    • Say so: one line on how AI was used

    You leave with a draft policy in your own words: where AI helps, and where the work has to be the student’s own.

  2. Checking what AI gives you

    the ten slips, practised on your own material

    For cohorts and teams

    slips.md

    • 06 · making up facts
    • Catch it: “Where did that come from?”
    • 01 · acting before looking
    • Catch it: “What did you look at before deciding that?”
    • + 8 more, on your own documents

    You leave with the ten slips named, and the questions that catch them, practised on your own documents.

  3. Building with AI safely

    decisions you can defend, and a security check before launch

    For teams at work

    decisions.md

    • Stays with a person: money, anything a customer sees, personal data
    • AI can go ahead: drafts, summaries, first tries
    • Before go-live: run the security check

    You leave with an agreed list of which decisions stay with a person, and a security check to run before anything goes live.

Shaped with you.

One session or a series, a small team or a full cohort. You say what you need, and the format follows.
