Excellence in Health Profession Education: Establishing a Nursing Faculty AI Champion Program to Elevate Teaching and Learning with Artificial Intelligence
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has transformative potential for Health Professions Education (HPE), revolutionizing teaching and learning. Barriers like faculty apprehension and unfamiliarity hinder AI integration. Research suggests boosting faculty self-efficacy and understanding AI benefits can drive adoption (Wang et al., 2021). Moreover, empowering faculty enhances academic work efficiency (Violato et al., 2023).
To address the gap in nursing faculty between AI's potential and usage, Dr. Fisher and her team will establish a Faculty AI Champion Program. Using a train-the-trainer approach, it aims to empower educators as AI champions, fostering a cultural shift towards digital innovation.
