About the Course

This course explores the dynamic intersection of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and education, particularly focusing on its implications for adult educators. It aims to dissect the dual perspectives on AI as both a potentially transformative educational tool and a perceived threat to traditional teaching roles. Through a critical examination of current technologies, perspective analysis and personal exploration, participants will engage in a comprehensive study of AI's role in shaping the future of education. The course is designed to equip educators with the knowledge and skills to critically assess the potential of AI to enhance teaching and learning while also considering the ethical, practical, and pedagogical challenges it presents.

Upon completion of this course, the student will be able to:

  • Analyze the potential of AI to transform educational practices, including personalized learning, assessment, and accessibility.
  • Evaluate the challenges and ethical considerations of integrating AI into educational settings, focusing on data privacy, bias, and the digital divide.
  • Develop strategies for leveraging AI technologies to complement traditional teaching methods and enhance student engagement and outcomes.
  • Critically assess arguments regarding AI as a threat to the teaching profession, including job displacement and the depersonalization of education.
  • Synthesize course learnings to articulate a personal stance on the use of AI in education, informed by research, case studies, and ethical considerations.

This class explored a highly relevant and timely topic in education. Lots of great videos and resources to explore, plus freedom to do my own exploration of AI tools that are out there.
Kristen Plecker
Excellent class! Learned so much about AI and education.
Sally Riggs
As educators, one of the best ways to incorporate significant changes into our classroom is to learn about them. As with so many of us, I have heard what I consider "wild" rumors about AI being the end of education. This class gives educators a much more thoughtful view on AI and some great tools to use in the classroom.
