HEART

The project aims to transform higher education by using generative AI (GenAI) to foster authentic learning, emphasizing critical thinking and real-world tasks rather than simple information acquisition. Many educators, particularly those in non-technical fields, lack guidance on the use of GenAI. Using Design Science Research, the team will identify adoption barriers, design solutions, and disseminate resources, which will be tested by educators and students. The expected outcomes include practical GenAI tools, teaching materials, and a supportive educator community, ultimately advancing innovative teaching practices with GenAI.

The project delivers a GenAI-based learning system and instructional materials for higher education. In addition, we will also provide community support for educators in integrating the resources and other potential GenAI solutions into their instructional practices. Through these results, the project will ultimately revolutionize educational practices by leveraging state-of-the-art technology, supporting authentic learning beyond information acquisition.
