Navigating the AI Wave
Artificial intelligence (AI) is no longer a distant future, but a present reality impacting numerous industries, including education. Within business schools, a specific branch of AI – generative AI (GenAI) – has sparked both excitement and apprehension. Tools like ChatGPT, Co-Pilot, and Gemini offer new possibilities for teaching and learning, but also raise questions about academic integrity, employability, and the future of faculty roles.
Featured Resources
Delving in to AI
On the “Delving into AI” page, you’ll discover resources designed to help educators explore artificial intelligence, particularly generative AI. The page includes an introductory course to get you up to speed on AI basics, practical guidance on integrating AI tools into your teaching, and discussions on ethical considerations. It’s a great starting point for educators looking to understand and apply AI in their classrooms.
