A Starting Point for AI as an Educator
Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly changing higher education, creating new opportunities and new questions for teaching and learning.
Whether you are exploring AI for the first time or looking to expand your knowledge, this Getting Started Using AI Toolkit provides a starting point for understanding AI and its role in education.

The resources are organized around the AI Education Framework, which offers practical guidance for developing AI literacy and integrating AI thoughtfully into teaching and learning. Rather than focusing on specific AI tools, the framework emphasizes the following that will remain valuable as technology continues to evolve: foundational concepts, responsible use and effective instructional practices.
