Abstract

How can we successfully meet the needs of all our adult learners in a technology-driven higher education world? Learn how AI can support the three relational levels of adult learners (Emerging, Mentee, Peer), leading to more engaged and personalized learning experiences that support student development of necessary AI competencies during their journey in college to their chosen careers. Learn how to design authentic learning and assessment experiences with AI to meet the unique needs of varied modern adult learners, from our ‘Zoomer’ students to our professionally-experienced, but AI novice peers.
