Over the past year, AI has gained significant attention in higher education, prompting faculty and instructors to rethink their traditional teaching methods. Although many have embraced AI’s potential, some educators need practical examples to help with implementation.
In this session, Curt Bonk showcases various ways post-secondary educators are using AI to improve their teaching. He’ll relate these methods to his Read, Reflect, Display and Do (R2D2) model, tailored to the diverse learning styles of today’s post-secondary students, in addition to his TEC-VARIETY framework for motivating online learners.
Equipped with these frameworks, faculty and instructors can confidently use AI to spark curiosity, enhance autonomy, foster interaction, boost engagement, offer valuable feedback and facilitate meaningful learning.
In this webinar, you’ll learn how to address and potentially overcome the limitations of AI tools such as ChatGPT in the context of higher education.
