Abstract
Given the widespread availability of generative-AI (Gen-AI) tools, faculty is often faced with a critical question: How can I effectively use AI or artificial intelligence in the classroom? Clearly, educators are challenged with the rapidly evolving AI tools and the extent of AI integration into their teaching and learning. Conversation on various AI tools adopted by educators among various faculties and institutions will be facilitated. In this engaging session, attendees will be encouraged to share their perspectives and experiences with Gen-AI at their institution and from their own educational or program specific contexts.
Participants will also explore the developed open education resource (OER) titled “Artificial Intelligence in Higher Education” licensed under CC BY-SA 4.0. As part of this resource, the talk will introduce CLEAR framework (Lo L.S., 2023) which stands for Concise, Logical, Explicit, Adaptive, and Reflective and facilitates more effective AI-generated content. Furthermore, the session will showcase examples covering interaction insights of ChatGPT with relevant course contents from life science and/or medical related courses along with the key takeaways.
Elements of Engagement
Several elements of engagement will be explored in this session (e.g. video, Mentimeter, google doc and discussion) in the context of this year’s conference theme of “Sustainable Learning." Participants will be engaged with a Mentimeter and other interactive activity near the start of the presentation to capture the types of AI tools and extend of AI usage. This will be followed by a facilitated open conversation and a google doc for better understanding and reflection of Gen-AI tools among various faculties. Later in the session, there will be an opportunity to explore the developed AI in higher education OER.
