STEMLEAD: STEM Learning Enhancement and Development through Artificial Intelligence for Undergraduate Students in Introductory Biology Courses

An interdisciplinary faculty team representing four colleges is developing STEM learning enhancement and development through AI for non-STEM majors in introductory biology courses (BIOL 101).

An innovative AI-empowered self-assessment feedback tool will:

  • Goal #1: Enhance the understanding of core biology concepts.

  • Goal #2: Develop critical thinking skills through a retrieval practice of repeated self-testing.

  • Goal #3: Improve confidence to engage in a growing number of socio-scientific issues such as pandemics, climate change, emerging novel technologies and advances in genomic medicine.

Our team, formed in the summer of 2024, is currently exploring AI in Education (AIED) potentials and offer an innovative AIED curriculum intervention.
