東海大學開授AI專班課程之成效：通識與人社領域教師的經驗回饋

Effects of Tunghai University’s AI Learning Experience Design Program: Feedback from Teachers in General Education and Humanities and Social Sciences Fields

高等教育迫切需要具備AI素養、並能結合專業學科與AI科技應用的師資。然而，對通識與人社領域教師們而言，使用AI工具常有著心理上的巨大障礙。為協助教師克服這些挑戰，東海大學以系統性、兼顧應用為導向，規劃AI學習體驗設計專班。課程透過手把手實作、案例分享、同儕交流與課程試教等形式，並搭配自編整合科技於教學問卷掌握學員學習成效，也蒐集學員對於未來導入生成式AI於課程的建議。
我們發現教師對生成式AI的熟悉與應用，最佳策略是從「玩AI」開始，逐步建立信心與實作能力。雖然生成式AI為通識與人社領域教師的教學開啟新可能、學生也更能展現創意與不同學習成果，但AI生成內容仍可能出現錯誤。在面對AI快速生成答案的同時，教師角色已從單純的知識傳授者轉變為學習引導者：引導學生檢視AI生成的正確性、培養批判思維，讓AI成為學習助力，而非被動接受。

Higher education urgently needs teachers who understand AI and can combine it with their professional fields. However, for teachers in general education and humanities, using AI tools often feels challenging. To support them, Tunghai University developed the AI Learning Experience Design Program, which takes a structured, hands-on approach. The program includes interactive activities, real-life case studies, peer collaboration, and trial teaching. A self-developed survey on technology integration in teaching was used to assess participants’learning outcomes, along with gathering feedback on how generative AI can be implemented in future courses.
According to the feedback from participants, one of the most effective ways to help educators get started with AI is to simply encourage them to ''play with it.'' This strategy, widely recommended by participants, helps lower the entry barrier. Generative AI creates new opportunities for subjects like general education and humanities, helping students show creativity and different learning results. However, AI-generated content still make mistakes. As AI gives quick answers, teachers are no longer just knowledge providers but guides in learning. They help students check if AI’s outputs are correct, build critical thinking skills, and use AI as a helpful learning tool instead of accepting it passively.
