Presentation Type: Oral Presentation
In the past year, Artificial Intelligence (AI) in education has dominated academic headlines. With the widespread release of ChatGPT in late 2021, the potential for positive and negative uses of AI has been a matter of concern for universities. With an eye towards the responsible and beneficial use of AI, a university in Hong Kong established a two-stage faculty development program comprised of 1) preparing faculty to implement AI, followed by 2) faculty’s design and launch of funded action research projects implementing AI into the curriculum (currently ongoing).
The first stage of the program had two steps to assist faculty in building knowledge and skills for designing and implementing AI. In step one, 78 faculty completed purpose-made, video-based modules on AI in education, consisting of two pre-quizzes, two videos, and two post-quizzes. Analysis of quiz data indicated that faculty increased their knowledge on AI basics by over 70%. In step two, 89 faculty attended two seminars – Effective Models of Learning for AI Products and Action Research Using AI Products. In the post-seminar feedback survey, more than 95% of the participants rated the seminars’ relevance and quality as ‘Satisfactory’ or better, and most rated them ‘Excellent.’
This case study will elaborate on the online modules and seminars in stage one, including their content, and critically examine their relevance and quality. This case study will be useful for those seeking to prepare themselves or academic colleagues to design and integrate AI into their curriculum based on credible theories, models, and principles.
