Fostering AI Literacy: A Guide for Educators in Higher Education
For a deeper dive into AI literacy and strategies for developing it, explore this interactive guide. Our OER guide represents a cross-institutional collaborative effort to empower educators with the knowledge, skills, and resources needed to integrate AI effectively in higher education. By leveraging the benefits of open education and embracing a research-informed approach, we aim to support faculty members in harnessing AI's transformative potential to enhance student learning outcomes and foster innovation in teaching and scholarship.
We conducted an extensive review of scholarly literature published between 2023 and 2025, synthesizing key insights and emerging trends in AI integration within higher education. Building upon this foundation, we iteratively developed and refined the content of the OER guide, incorporating feedback from instructors who participated in pilot testing and usability evaluations. This iterative process allowed us to address instructors’ specific needs, enhance the OER’s usability, and ensure its alignment with best practices in AI-enhanced pedagogy.
