AI-Informed, Not AI-Driven: A Framework for Responsible Course Redesign

Friday June 12, 2026 9:00am - 9:30am EDT

Lafayette 3

As AI tools become increasingly embedded in course design workflows, the question isn't just whether to use them, it's how to use them responsibly and ethically. This session explores the UCF RN-BSN program's partnership with iDesign to redesign 17 fully online, accelerated and compressed nursing courses. Attendees will learn how an "AI-informed, AI-supported" framework keeps human experts in control of content decisions while AI handles alignment checks, workload calibration, and quality assurance. Ethical considerations are built into the workflow, with humans maintaining authority over academic and content choices at every stage. The session offers a transferable model for institutions navigating AI adoption without sacrificing academic oversight.
