Artificial Intelligence in Education & Training
Who We Are
The Artificial Intelligence in Education & Training program area is a dedicated research and development (R&D) initiative committed to advancing artificial intelligence (AI) in education and workforce training. As part of CETE, housed within the College of Education and Human Ecology at The Ohio State University, our program leverages interdisciplinary expertise to bridge the gap between the rapid evolution of AI technologies and the preparedness of educators, trainers, and professionals. Our vision is to foster a generation that is not only proficient in AI but also responsible in its application, ensuring ethical and effective integration into education and the workforce.
What We Do
The Artificial Intelligence in Education & Training program area works to enhance AI literacy, responsible AI use, and workforce readiness by offering a range of activities that include:
- Research & Development: Conducting impactful research to explore the most effective ways to integrate AI into education and training.
- Professional Learning & Training: Providing educators, trainers, and learning designers with resources, tools, and training to effectively incorporate AI in teaching and workforce development.
- Curriculum & Resource Development: Creating educational materials, frameworks, and evidence-based practices that support AI education and literacy.
- Consultation & Partnership Opportunities: Collaborating with organizations to provide expert guidance, in-house training, and customized AI education solutions.
CETE aims to transform AI education and workforce training by partnering with individuals and organizations to harness AI’s potential while navigating its challenges responsibly.
Projects
Artificial Intelligence Literacy for Families and Schools
As part of CETE’s AI in education & training program area, the Artificial Intelligence Literacy for Families and Schools Project is dedicated to supporting families and educators with the knowledge and tools to navigate an AI-driven world. In partnership with the family engagement program area, this initiative bridges the gap between home and school by providing AI literacy resources, professional learning sessions, and immersive experiences that help parents and teachers integrate AI into student learning.
Artificial Intelligence Integration for Global Educators
The Experiential Learning Program for Visiting Scholars provides AI-focused training for scholars from Zhejiang Normal University (ZJNU), China, as they explore the U.S. education system, research methodologies, and instructional practices. This initiative aligns with Ohio State’s global engagement efforts, equipping future educators with AI literacy and educational technology skills that can transform their teaching.
