Getting Started with Generative Artificial Intelligence: Considerations and Strategies

The rapid adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) technology raises questions about implications for teaching and learning within medical education (Huang, 2023, UNESCO, 2023). It is human expertise which will unlock the power of AI (Mollick, 2023) and therefore, together we have the opportunity to navigate the challenges and imagine the possibilities. During this interactive session, facilitators will provide an overview of Generative AI facilitate discussions about its impact on medical education, provide definitions, and share resources. Participants will engage with various Generative AI to practice crafting well defined prompts designing teaching and learning activities, offering suggestions for curricular use.

After this workshop participants will be able to:

  • Describe how Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) works
  • Discuss implications in medical education, including ethical considerations and potential bias of AI tools
  • Identify generative AI resources to support medical education, self-directed learning, and curriculum development
  • Practice using Generative AI (e.g. ChatGPT) for instruction and design of assessments

Workshop Materials

Prompt Components (TRACI)

TRACI(link is external) is one kind of prompting framework that is useful for engineering prompts of Generative AI.  The letters refer to various components of a prompt:

T-Task: Task  referers to the type of output the prompt should achieve. For example, a rubric, learning goals, or a syllabus statement.

R-Role: Role refers to the persona generative AI should take on when responding. For example, an expert educator, a student advisor, and instructional designer

A-Audience: Audience refers to the group to whom the response is written. For example, introductory biology students, graduate level competitive study majors, Doctor of Pharmacy Students.

C-Create: Create refers to the format of the output, for example, 200 words, a three-column table, or an acrostic poem.

I-Intent: Intent communicates the purpose of the response for example to promote a growth mindset or clearly communicate expectations.

Considering the TRACI model will improve initial prompts and provide guidance as prompts are revised.
