In this case study, we explore the transformative role of generative AI in enhancing student-centered learning within the College of Natural Sciences and Mathematics at California State University, Fullerton. Through an innovative project, students from diverse majors, including Mathematics and Statistics, were trained to design AI-based educational activities that address gaps in traditional teaching methods. These activities were implemented and tested in collaboration with faculty, with results showing significant improvements in student engagement, understanding, and satisfaction. This presentation highlights the potential of AI to close equity gaps, increase retention rates, and prepare students for success in a technology-driven world.
