Artificial Intelligence (AI) Certification for Educators
Learn how to leverage AI in Education to become a Prompt Engineer
Empowering Educators with AI
Welcome to the cutting-edge training course on prompt engineering tailored specifically for educators. In today’s rapidly evolving educational landscape, integrating artificial intelligence (AI) into teaching practices has become essential for enhancing student engagement, personalizing learning experiences and optimizing educational outcomes. This comprehensive course equips educators with the knowledge, skills and tools to leverage prompt engineering (the art and science of writing queries or prompts to get what you want out of AI) effectively in their classrooms.
Prompt engineering for educators means crafting specific cues or prompts to optimize the responses generated by AI models, such as GPT, in educational contexts. It aims to ensure that AI-generated responses align with educational objectives, facilitate learning, and support effective communication between educators and students. This course is for anyone that works in education, whether you have experience using AI or not. No prior experience is necessary, but you will walk away with the understanding and skills to be a prompt engineer.
