Abstract
This project aims to address the lack of systematic support and training for teachers in self-financing institutions to effectively integrate generative artificial intelligence (AI) into their teaching. To achieve this, the project will develop the AI-Enhanced Teaching Resource Hub, an online open educational resource platform developed based on the expanded DPaCK (Digitality-related Pedagogical and Content Knowledge) model. The Hub will provide teachers in self-financing educational sector with tailored AI-powered tools, training resources, and exemplary practices to enhance their AI literacy and pedagogical skills. It includes the AI Educators Academy, the Educational AI Toolkit, and the AI-Powered Pedagogy Repository, which collectively aim to equip teachers with practical AI-driven solutions and innovative teaching practices. Additionally, 20 professional development workshops and 5 thematic Coffee Talk Meetings will be launched to foster collaboration, while research will be conducted to evaluate the platform’s effectiveness. Findings will be shared through 2 public seminars, social media, and the Hub itself to drive broader impact. By empowering educators with AI, this overall objective of this project is to enhance teaching and learning experience in the four participating institutions and the self-financing post-secondary sector.
