Description

A perennial challenge in preparing pre-service instructional designers is creating authentic opportunities for students to confer and collaborate with workplace subject matter experts. This session will discuss an approach used in a “Designing Workplace Training” course at the University of Miami to develop and deploy custom large language model-based chatbots that serve as subject matter experts with whom students can consult when designing workplace training interventions as well as the results of a student survey about the experience. Session attendees will leave with practical takeaways for developing their own no-code, purpose-built, educational chatbots for a variety of contexts.
