In this self-paced, asynchronous seminar, you’ll explore the rapid growth and transformative impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on education, focusing on its opportunities and challenges in your classroom. Over four modules, you’ll explore generative AI tools like ChatGPT, which produce text, images, data, and code in response to human prompts. The course will guide you through: (1) assessing your “AI mindset” and teaching methods to gain an accurate view of your classes’ susceptibility to AI-enhanced cheating behaviors (2) deciding when and how to use AI ethically and safely in your field, as well as providing you with strategies to help your students learn when and how to use AI appropriately (3) how to reduce AI errors and biases using well-crafted prompts, iteration, and auditing for AI hallucinations (4) exploring practical uses for AI, like data analysis (5) discovering how AI can enhance educational accessibility, support individualized learning for your students, and promote (or further erode) educational equity.
