Benefit of this resource and how to make the best use of it

This 12 lesson open course provides an introduction to the AI Fluency Framework and the four competencies of Delegation, Description, Discernment, and Diligence. The course can be used by educators, academic developers, instructional designers, and others to build personal AI Fluency and apply it in their professional practice, and also to share directly with students to help them build AI Fluency and apply it in their academic setting. The AI Fluency Framework is both a useful descriptive framework for critically discussing human-AI interaction and an applied normative framework for skill-building. The course exercises can be adapted for formative and summative assessment. The summary handouts are conveniently presented in slide-friendly form for building presentations.
