This presentation shares the steps that EIT InnoEnergy teachers have taken to get up to speed with AI. The presentation shares use cases, tools, pedagogical options to embed AI in courses, and tools regarding assessments. The presentation was given at Online Educa Berlin 2023.

1. Co-learning To Speed Up AI
Implementation
Inge de Waard. 24 November 2023. OEB in Berlin Germany
All pictures created with Bing Enterprise (= Dall-E 3)

2. InnoEnergy is a sustainable
energy ecosystem:
AI awareness across 10 EU
countries, & teachers from 15
technical & business universities

3. Sustainable innovation demands
increasing
• speed of innovation
• up-to-date workforce for industry
• uptake of new knowledge
Finding a reusable process

4. Teacher experiments
• Using AI avatars as content
presenters
• Data Science Summer School
(Kaggle use)
• Role play “Ethics in AI” for
students (PlayDecide)
• Elai tool (txt to video) example
of ‘Breaking News’
• Hydrogen lesson built with Elai.

5. Locating priority
needs from
teachers

6. Three priority areas for AI tools
SUPPORTING ADMINISTRATION
(REPORTING, PROPOSAL WRITING)
ENABLING RESEARCH ACTIVITIES
(WRITING, CITATIONS)
FACILITATING TEACHING & LEARNING
(OPTIMIZING COURSE STRUCTURE,
ASSESSMENT)

7. Next steps towards
teacher wide AI uptake
• Based on needs: workshop in TU Dublin (14 Sep 2023)
• Implement practical actions (1 AI tool / teacher)
• Building a community of practitioners and … evaluate
AI literacy (picture Stella Y. Lee)

8. • Use low hanging fruit like Microsoft.
• Who has used Bing Enterprise Chat ?
• If you have MS365, you can open it in Edge!
(free and your personal and company data are
not stored!)

Prompting skills!

10. A take away
makes life more
colorful
Feel free to download the AI toolkit
for Teachers (23 pages with
practical tools and short
descriptions).
Or join the AI for Teachers
LinkedIn group

11. Using AI tools
within University
education
AI tools can be used for various
purposes in university education:
• enhancing learning (EU: TutorAI,
MathsGee),
• supporting research: Elicit,
SemanticScholar = free
• facilitating communication: EU
DeepL (now integration for
Windows),
• Perplexity for summarizing a report
• https://datasquirrel.ai/ to crunch data
faster

12. AI assessment tools:
- support for students
- teacher tool

13. Word of
warning 

14. Some useful assessment
tools within courses
• Coursefactory AI co-pilot: build courses, while integrating
assessments/quizzes in the same effort (e.g. multiple
choice, fill in the blancs, open ended questions and
evaluation)
• Nolej.ai to create interactive material, from your own
databanks, while optimizing the alignment of content
and assessments.

15. AI assessment tools for
written assignments
• EssayGrader - Grade essays with the power of AI
(including a summarizer to get the overall gist of an
essay.)
• QuestionPaper AI to create a set of questions for
each student’s story, based on the content, style,
and theme of the story. The questions were
designed to test the students’ comprehension,
analysis, and evaluation of their own work, as well
as their creativity and originality.

16. To use AI, or not to use AI
…
what is your question…

On tools, guidelines, benefits, drawbacks….
Feel free to peruse

18. Benefits and drawbacks

19. Benefits of
using AI
assessment
tools
Improving the efficiency and scalability of assessment
(reducing the workload and time required for
marking, grading, or providing feedback).
Enhancing the diversity and flexibility of assessment
(more personalised, adaptive, and formative
assessment methods and formats).

20. Drawbacks
of using AI
assessments
tools
Threatening the integrity and quality of assessment
Raising ethical and legal issues, by involving the use of
personal data, intellectual property, or sensitive
information, and by requiring the compliance with data
protection, privacy, or consent regulations and policies.
Creating digital divides and inequalities, by requiring
access to technology, internet, or digital literacy, and by
creating gaps or biases between different groups of
students, staff, or institutions.

21. Pedagogical options using AI

22. Integrating AI in student activities
 Creative writing task. The teacher assigns a creative writing task to the students, asking them to write
a short story based on a prompt. The teacher also asks the students to share their writing process:
how they came up with the idea, what challenges they faced, and what feedback they received from
peers (in case of peer evaluation as part of the writing process).
 Use ChatGPT to summarize an article that is written in a specific language (e.g. French) and ask it to
bring the summary to a B1 level of understanding so students can follow.
 Activity plus side notes. The teacher asks students to answer a set of questions regarding the process
in a separate document from a writing/production activity, and submit both the story/product and
the answers regarding the process to the assessment. The questions include citing any sources or
tools the students used for their writing, product realization, … including AI tools.
 Plagiarism checkers. The teacher can use plagiarism checkers and readability analyzers, to verify the
authenticity and quality of the stories. In this case it is crucial to share that fact in advance with the
students to create an environment of transparency. (Be warned, students are smart)
 Ethics discussion. Any learning/teaching activity including an AI tool, provides a good opportunity to
discuss ethical and academic implications of presenting AI-generated content as one’s own.

23. AI tools as learning assistants for students
POE chatbot for many
platforms and purposes.
AI-mentor: mostly aimed
at skills – personal and
professional.
Quillbot (re)writing in
style and timbre
AI-tutor: UK-based math
AI tutor.

24. Guidelines
and best
practices

25. The European University Association
promotes responsible use
While GenAI is increasingly implemented, the EUA
made a statement (with documentation) to move
towards a consistent, transparent responsible use of
AI (the EUA took this position on 14 Feb 2023)

26. Educate students on ethical AI use
Ethical guidelines on the use of artificial intelligence and data in teaching
and learning for educators (EU)
 The guidelines provide practical advice and examples on how to
integrate the effective and ethical use of AI and data into school
education
 How to develop the relevant competences among teachers/ students.
 Teachers can use AI tools as a catalyst to foster dialogue and debate
among students, as well as with other stakeholders, such as parents,
experts, or policymakers.
 Teachers can use AI tools as a model to demonstrate and exemplify the
ethical principles and values that should guide the use of AI in
education and beyond
Have you heard or tested https://roft.io/ (identify fake or real text, it is a
game)

27. Guidelines
Students and staff need to follow and adhere to the policies and guidelines of
academic integrity, quality assurance, and ethical standards, and to report and address
any cases of misuse or misconduct. Examples
• University of Greenwich (UK)
• KULeuven (Belgium)

28. Useful resources for AI use
• How to prevent hallucinations. Zapier article (useful when
using AI tools for content creation, Sep 2023)
• OpenRefine. Free open-source tool for data cleaning
(useful for students)
• Timeline of AI up until now. A nice interactive chart and
descriptions.
• Learning prompts (or buying them):
https://promptbase.com/
Two AI repositories (nice to find latest and highest evaluated
tools:
• Futurepedia, an AI tool repository
• There’s an AI for That, another AI tool repository

29. Conclusion
•
AI tools can help
But also pose some risks
Use them with caution
