Description
This session demonstrates how partnering with artificial intelligence can enhance student learning in online courses. Through practical examples from an online nutrition course, including AI-enhanced discussion prompts and role-play assessments, participants will explore the transformation from viewing AI as a potential threat to leveraging it as a powerful pedagogical tool. The session provides strategies for redesigning assignments that encourage meaningful AI partnerships rather than dependency. Participants will leave with concrete frameworks and tools for implementing AI partnerships in their own courses while maintaining academic integrity and promoting higher-order thinking skills.
