How Good Are GenAI Tools At Instructional Design?
“Spoiler: my findings underscore that until we have specialised, fine-tuned AI copilots for instructional design, we should be cautious about relying on general-purpose models and ensure expert oversight in all ID tasks.”
Another Harvard Study On AI Tutors. (Remember, They’re Harvard Students.)
“The data showed significant improvements in learning outcomes: Students using the AI tutor achieved more than twice the learning gains compared to those in the active learning classroom.”
On The “Buttonification” Of Instructional Design With AI
What Might An AI Informed, Post-Bloom’s Taxonomy Look Like?
On Using AI To Simulate Students When Lesson Planning
“Imagine the possibilities if we could use AI to simulate learner responses during the instructional design process. What if you didn’t need to conduct endless interviews, waiting for learner feedback that sometimes never arrives? What if you could have instant conversations with virtual learners and rapidly generate reliable data to inform your design?”
