Learn how generative AI could transform teaching, learning, and assessment
From the arrival of chatbots like ChatGPT to the spread of uncannily convincing AI-generated images, we are seeing increasingly dramatic advances in the development of artificial intelligence. Higher education is just one of many sectors set to be impacted by the changes.
On this two-week course from King’s College London, you’ll review the latest developments in generative AI. As you investigate the potential uses and limitations of GenAI tools, you’ll prepare for the future of higher education.
Explore the capabilities, limitations, and ethics of AI
You’ll start the course with an overview of generative AI. You’ll examine the technology behind chatbots and image generators, and learn about their main capabilities and limitations.
You’ll also debate ethical and environmental concerns around AI.
Understand the potential impact of AI in education
Once you’ve explored the potential of generative AI, you’ll home in on its specific impact on higher education.
You’ll learn how generative AI tools could transform the way we teach, learn, and evaluate students, potentially threatening academic integrity but opening up new opportunities to improve educational practices.
Consider the wider influence of AI on the job market
Last but not least, you’ll consider the impact generative AI is having on the employment landscape.
You’ll investigate the emergence of new roles and erosion of others, discussing how courses and curricula should evolve to meet the needs of the new job market.
By the end of the course, you’ll have the knowledge you need to take on the future of artificial intelligence.
This course is designed for anyone interested in learning more about the impact generative AI is having on higher education.
It will be particularly valuable for academics, teachers, and other educators, university professional services staff, policy makers and students.
