AI for Educators: A New Initiative at SLU
Published: 26 March 2025
At the Unit for Educational Development, Division of Learning and Digitalisation, we are excited to announce the launch of AI for Educators—an SLU initiative helping teaching staff navigate the opportunities and challenges of generative AI in education.
Since ChatGPT launched in November 2022, educators have faced both excitement and uncertainty about AI's role in teaching and learning. We believe teachers shouldn't face these challenges alone.
To address this, we are launching the AI for Educators project this spring with a series of three skills-development seminars. These sessions will provide both theoretical and practical foundation for our teachers, complemented by Canvas-based support materials and additional opportunities for follow-up discussions. In the autumn, we will continue with workshops, seminars, and hands-on support related to specific pedagogic practices.
Register now for our upcoming seminars and workshops:
We have also started this initiative by conducting a survey to better understand teachers' needs and concerns. Based on this feedback, we are developing resources to further support our teachers. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to us at AI4Ed@slu.se
Most events will be held in English, but you are welcome to discuss with colleagues from other faculties, institutions, or divisions in Swedish.
