Details:
Entrepreneurship education and entrepreneurship educators are not immune to Short and Short's (2023) call for careful management of generative artificial intelligence (genAI) as it inevitably works its way into everyday life. Indeed, Bell and Bell (2023) see the challenge, or opportunity, as being twofold. Firstly, requiring entrepreneurship educators to develop curricula to teach students about genAI and foster the appropriate levels of skills and competencies to effectively utilise the technology. Secondly, and more profoundly, entrepreneurship educators need to understand how AI affects pedagogic practice and assessment. The latter raises the question, how can entrepreneurship educators embrace AI? For this PDW, the role of AI in assessment feedback practice for ideation and pitching methods of assessment is explored. The workshop will provide insights into how such customised tutorbots work and how to develop and deploy them as a practical tool to give feedback to students. A deeper understanding of the potential of genAI in terms of higher order learning for students and an appreciation of the overall learning experience. Key takeaway is the practical application of AI tutorbots in providing feedback in a formative context. This will consider how genAI feedback can be tailored to rubrics, growth areas, and next steps for students. In addition, the workshop will explore the benefits of students taking responsibility for seeking immediate feedback on their work and how best to support the educator to provide high-quality feedback based on learning goals/outcomes and students' needs.
