Increasing and enhancing the provision of education for sustainable development (ESD) enables transformative learning for students, empowering them to become change agents for sustainable futures. But how can we ensure that they are equipped to operate in high levels of uncertainty and within fast-changing environments?
Using Generative Artificial Intelligence, educators can explore new pedagogical practices, connect students with a wider range of resources, and support new forms of knowledge production.
This project will create an authentic, practice-led and inclusive set of quality principles that support the implementation and promotion of ESD using Gen AI.
Project approach
Through collaborative fieldwork, the project team will capture and examine a range of practice innovations in the use of Gen AI to support accessible and inclusive learning, teaching and assessment.
Planned outputs
The project will support the sector to adopt innovative digital education which uses Gen AI effectively to promote ESD in their own contexts, including:
- A set of evidence-informed principles and a framework for effective use of Gen AI to enhance learning, teaching, and assessment designs and practices promoting ESD
- A series of accessible and interactive resources to illustrate effective practice models and how they can be adopted in other institutions
- A hybrid symposium event to showcase the resources and share good practices
- An inter-institutional mentorship programme to support communities of practice, to help solve national and global problems
