Training "Applying AI & Technology for Enhancing Pedagogical Effectiveness"

Applying AI & Technology for Enhancing Pedagogical Effectiveness

Training Program | June 29-30, 2026

Introduction:

Artificial Intelligence is rapidly transforming higher education by reshaping how educators design courses, create learning materials, assess student performance, conduct research, and manage academic responsibilities. While AI offers unprecedented opportunities to enhance teaching effectiveness and learner engagement, many faculty members seek practical guidance on integrating these technologies meaningfully and ethically into their pedagogical practices. These two day hands on workshop is designed to equip university teachers with the knowledge, skills, and tools needed to leverage AI for teaching, assessment, content creation, student engagement, and academic productivity. Through interactive activities, demonstrations, and practical exercises, participants will explore how AI can support innovative, learner centered, and evidence- based teaching practices while maintaining academic integrity and professional judgment. The workshop emphasizes practical application using leading AI tools, enabling participants to develop ready- to- use teaching resources and implementation plans for their own courses.
