AI-driven Digital Education for Future-Proof Upskilling
YERUN university students are invited to explore how to apply AI in lifelong learning education.
Participants will be trained on the features of AI with a specific focus on its impact on digital education and will be engaged on the specific challenges of applying AI to professional long-life learning courses.
On such a background, participants will develop their proposals according to the Design Thinking:
1) empathise, reflecting on the challenges professionals face to keep up with new AI tools and approaches;
2) discover, listing what extended reality can provide in overcoming such challenges;
3) define, focusing an AI-driven solution and specify the strengths of its value proposition;
4) ideate, reflecting on the match between the desired features and the currently available AI tools
5) prototype, sketching the selected features using currently available AI tools.
