Transforming Education at UNM: CULLS launches innovative OER Programs with AI integration and financial support - UNM

This summer, CULLS will run a Pilot Program to help faculty, instructors, and graduate students learn more about AI and OER. This pilot program for AI-Enhanced Creation of Open Educational Resources consists of a cohort of 6-10 faculty members and instructors. The pilot will help CULLS develop the AI section for an OER guidebook currently in development, and cohort members will receive a stipend of $1,000, as well as three months’ subscription to Open AI’s GPT-4, for their involvement in the program. This eight-week cohort-based program is designed to support faculty and instructors across diverse disciplines, by providing the tools needed to incorporate AI in OER development. Additionally, it offers a collaborative space for sharing insights and learning alongside peers. Participating researchers will have the opportunity to develop resources for their individual courses or initiate larger-scale OER projects.
