In “Using Generative AI for Learning Design Activities,” you’ll experiment with how generative AI supports learning design tasks. Throughout the course, instructors will use an applied case study to illustrate how generative AI can enhance learning design. You will then apply these insights to various activities, including drafting learning objectives, brainstorming, aligning course outcomes, and creating learner personas. You’ll then scope and conduct an experiment using generative AI, sharing your experiment results with peers in the course. This is the second course in the series "Generative AI as a Learning Design Partner," which introduces generative AI to the learning design process to support the creation of engaging instructional design. For educators in the state of Michigan: This series, "Generative AI as a Learning Design Partner," is approved in the state of Michigan for a maximum of 15 State Continuing Education Clock Hours (SCECHs) for educators.
