Understanding AI: Developing a Course on AI Storytelling | series intro

Welcome to ’Understanding AI: Developing a Course on AI Storytelling’. In this video series, we dive into the world of AI and education. As an educator, I am aiming to demystify how to effectively teach AI, with a special focus on the aspect of AI in storytelling. This series gives you a backstage pass into the creation and development of a college-level course on Artificial Intelligence. We aim to tackle the challenges of teaching AI and inspire students to become self-learners in this ever-evolving field. Together, we will unravel the intricate concept of ’understanding’ as explored in the influential book ’Understanding By Design’. This journey will take us beyond the theoretical aspects of teaching, and we will delve into practical strategies derived from a wealth of pedagogical resources. Expect to see a meticulous breakdown of the ’backward design’ approach in course development. We will learn how to make our course resonate with the impact of AI on our lives and society, preparing our students for the AI-enabled future. I invite you to join me on this journey of reflection and development. Whether you’re an educator, a student, an AI enthusiast, or someone looking to reinvent your career in the AI landscape, this series has something for you. Together, we can demystify AI and make sense of the future that is already upon us. Your thoughts, experiences, and perspectives are welcomed and encouraged in the comments. Let’s understand AI together. You might also like my newsletter The Metaverse is Open:
