This session equips L&D practitioners with the necessary knowledge and skills to navigate the evolving landscape of Gen AI during course development. AI-driven content creation is becoming a cornerstone of modern instructional design. L&D professionals must not only recognize this trend but also master the effective application of these tools to remain relevant and impactful in their roles.
The success of GenAI integration hinges on identifying and implementing best practices that enhance educational outcomes and safeguard against pitfalls such as overreliance on AI for tasks requiring critical thinking. The general principles emphasize that AI serves as a tool to support and extend thinking rather than replace it.
Through real-world examples, we will walk through the tasks in the course where GenAI was used by the learners for content creation. We will discuss the specific rules for each task, including restrictions or requirements for AI use. By integrating guidelines into the program, the course creators maintained the authenticity and rigor of their learning process.
Participants will leave with a comprehensive understanding of the purpose and boundaries of Gen AI tools and the AI–ICE Framework that can be used to assess their and their team’s AI competency.
Learning Objectives:
- Comprehend the purpose and parameters of GenAI tool usage in course development.
- Identify the nuanced yet irreplaceable role of human insight in instruction.
- Discuss guidelines created to foster the concept that AI is a tool to support and extend thinking rather than replace it.
