Episode 259: Exploring AI's Role in Instructional Design

In this episode of My EdTech Life, we welcome back Dr. Luke Hobson, who shares his insights on utilizing Artificial Intelligence (AI) in instructional design. We explore the potential of using AI as a tool to aid content creation and improve student experiences. However, we also discuss the challenges, such as the slow pace of adoption in higher education, data privacy concerns, and the need for a thorough understanding of AI systems to avoid reliance on first outputs. While touching upon the future prospects of AI, we delve into the importance of effective, quality-focused utilization instead of just mass production. Dr. Hobson further shares tips for effective, prompt engineering in AI and encourages ongoing experimentation for best results.
