CoPilot for Education
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We are using CoPilot at the Tseng College which is part of California State University Northridge. We are using it as the standard AI tool that will be used in classes taught under the umbrella of Tseng college. We are also using it to help go over syllabi and classroom exercises. We are expanding the use of the product almost daily.
