GenAI Beginners’ Session: How to Integrate AI into Your Teaching

This session introduces the basic concepts of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its application in education. We begin by defining AI and exploring its historical evolution, highlighting its growing importance in the educational field. We distinguish between weak and strong AI and explain key concepts such as machine learning and deep learning. We focus on AI tools useful for educators: ChatGPT for generating content and answering questions, image generators like DALL-E and Midjourney for creating visual material, and automatic transcription and summarization tools for processing information. The session includes a practical activity where participants create a prompt for ChatGPT related to their subject, allowing them to directly experiment with AI. We conclude with a question-and-answer session to address doubts and delve into topics of interest. The goal is to provide educators with a basic understanding of AI and how they can integrate it into their teaching practices, fostering innovation and improving the learning experience for students. This introduction to GenAI aims to empower educators with knowledge and practical skills to leverage AI in their classrooms, enhancing both teaching methods and student engagement.

Creating your Own AI Personal Assistant

In this session, we will build our first Custom GPT with the help of ChatGPT, selecting a key opportunity that Generative AI offers to offer more value to teachers and students with the help of personalized digital assistants (custom GPTs). This Personal Assistant can help in several different activities:

1. Better prepare your course content and discussion
2. Prepare your quiz or exam.
3. Prepare stories to enable personalized experience with your students
4. Enhance the value of your discussion forums (summaries, comments per student)
This session will be a hands-on experience, and it is expected that the professors have already the capability to build Custom GPTs in either ChatGPT or Gemini.

It is expected that the audience already understands the opportunities of Generative AI. As a preparation for this course, we recommend Gen AI for everyone by Andrew Ng.

The purpose of this seminar is to offer IE faculty the opportunity of learning about best practices in participant centered teaching methods. A practical oriented seminar, it´s aim is to develop additional skills for leading discussions in your courses. The discussion method is generally well received by the students, who consider it a more engaging experience than the traditional lecture. It requires more proactive work of the students, who develop criteria rather than memory. It is in line with the trends for education in Europe and it focuses on the learning of the students rather than teaching of professors. We will be using class discussions in the seminar about class discussions. We will particularly discuss cases about some real experiences of professors in class.
