About the Event
Description: The "AI revolution" in education has moved past simple chatbots and into the realm of high-velocity production. Join our Instructional Design team for a practical, behind-the-curtain look at how we’ve integrated custom AI solutions to transform the ID process from a marathon into a sprint—without losing the human touch.
In this session, we will reveal three pillars of our AI-enhanced workflow:
Petra the PDC: Meet our AI-powered Professional Development Companion, designed to provide instant, pedagogical support and resource mapping.
Precision Prompting for Course Design: Learn our internal frameworks for using LLMs to generate robust course maps, learning objectives, and assessment alignments in seconds.
Nectir Assistant Automation: See how we’ve built custom assistants within Nectir to automate the "heavy lifting" of course building, ensuring consistency and accessibility at scale.
