Artificial Intelligence (AI) Education for Teachers
Generative AI is transforming education — but before you can harness it effectively, you need to understand the foundations it's built on. This course is where that journey begins. Developed before the rise of Generative AI, this course is designed by teachers, for teachers, and answers the questions that matter most: What is AI, really? How has it evolved over the last 70 years, and how does it relate to human intelligence? What skills — design thinking, critical and creative thinking, computational thinking — do learners need to engage with it meaningfully? And how do we ensure it works for the good of society, not against it? By working through these foundations, you'll build the AI literacy and the critical lens that today's educators need, not just to understand AI, but to teach it across all areas of the curriculum with confidence and purpose. There is also a unique opportunity to implement a Capstone Project with your students alongside your own professional learning. Developed through a collaboration between Macquarie School of Education at Macquarie University and IBM Australia, this course is aligned to AITSL 'Proficient Level' Australian Professional Standards at AQF Level 8. This course sets you up for the next step in the specialisation, where you'll move from understanding AI to actively working with Generative AI tools which teaches how to prompt effectively, design AI-enhanced lessons, and integrate AI into your teaching practice while maintaining your professional expertise and judgement.

Reviewed Apr 4, 2021I had an almost 0 knowledge of AI when I started this course. What a great time I had learning. I wrote my first machine training program. I was delighted and so proud of myself even though it is on the level of a primary student. Algorithms were a scary topic but I can confidently say that it is no longer alien. I love the links to articles and YouTube videos. An excellent example of an inter-active online course. Thank you.
