ATLE Lunch and Event: Redesigning Online Courses for the Age of AI

Creating good online courses has always required new pedagogy, but AI has exposed some of the flaws in our previous pedagogy. Could we now use AI to redesign online courses to reduce cheating and increase learning? Beyond new assignments that require a higher standard that neither human nor AI alone could reach, we can also build and deploy customized bots as tutors, moderators, role-play partners, customized support, and even as the assignment or assessment itself. Building a bot is no more technical than sending an email: the real work lies in the critical thinking and design that guide its behavior. Building bots can also be a student assignment. This workshop will help you think about new assignments, support, and course design.
