A strong FDP should not be a sequence of disconnected tool demonstrations. It should build AI literacy, pedagogy, assessment judgment, and responsible-use capability.
The problem this resource solves
Institutions need session modules that can be adapted for two-hour, half-day, full-day, or multi-day faculty development programs.
Who should use it
- Faculty members and academic leaders.
- Research scholars and postgraduate learners.
- Institutions planning practical AI capability.
Core framework
Use the issue as a practical academic workflow: clarify purpose, choose responsible support, verify outputs, document use, and improve the human-led process.
- Module 1: AI foundations and limitations.
- Module 2: Teaching and feedback workflows.
- Module 3: Assessment redesign and integrity.
- Module 4: Responsible use, disclosure, and policy.
- Module 5: Department-level action planning.
Practical workflow
- Define the academic task and learning or research objective.
- Decide where AI can support without replacing core thinking.
- Use structured prompts or templates.
- Verify outputs against reliable sources and institutional expectations.
- Document AI use and refine the workflow after review.
Examples and applications
- A faculty member converts the resource into a classroom activity.
- A research scholar uses the checklist before drafting or submitting work.
- An institution adapts the framework for an FDP or policy discussion.
Responsible-use boundaries
AI-supported work should remain transparent, verifiable, privacy-aware, and aligned with academic integrity. The user remains responsible for claims, decisions, citations, and final submitted work.
Checklist
- Purpose is clear.
- Human judgment is visible.
- Sources are verified.
- Sensitive data is protected.
- Disclosure expectations are followed.
