Inger-Marie Falgren Christensen, Department of Design, Media and Educational Studies, SDU

In this webinar, Inger-Marie will illustrate how she has supported her students’ use of AI in the 4th semester, 10 ECTS, BA-course Learning and knowledge sharing. As part of this course, students are to plan, carry out and report on an empirical investigation in a specific organisation, exploring an issue related to the course themes, learning and knowledge sharing. This also constitutes the competence goal of the course, and students submit their report for the final assessment. In the course, students’ use of AI in relation to the different phases of the empirical inquiry was supported by templates that scaffolded iterative and critical use, as well as reflection on AI-supported learning. Inger-Marie will share the learning design and its theoretical underpinnings as well as her own and students’ evaluation.
