Instructional Design Community: Generative AI Ethics and Policy

Instructional Design Community: Generative AI Ethics and Policy

With Kyle Wallace – Director of the Instructional Design CoP

Generative AI now allows instructional designers to do everything from creating course outlines to generating images, audio, and video, to even acting as a subject matter expert and co-designer! But with these exciting new capabilities comes the new constraint of using AI tools ethically and responsibly.

Join us for this month’s Instructional Design COP, where we’ll be exploring the vital intersection of AI policy and ethics within instructional design. As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly integrated into educational practices and the development of courses and materials, it's imperative to establish frameworks that prioritize ethical considerations.

In this session, we'll discuss the complexities of crafting AI policies tailored to educational and/or training settings, addressing issues such as data privacy, algorithmic bias, and equitable access, and explore practical strategies for fostering responsible AI adoption with ethical guidelines to ensure that AI-driven instructional design aligns with our values of fairness, transparency, and inclusivity.

Let’s navigate the evolving landscape of AI ethics in learning together!
