Course Information

Description

This course introduces the principles and applications of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) in medical education research. Participants will explore the theoretical foundations of AI, practical tools, ethical considerations, and real-world applications in adaptive learning systems, predictive analytics, virtual simulations, AI Instructional Coaches, and ML-based clinical competence assessments. The course combines synchronous virtual lectures, interactive workshops, guided discussions, and a final group presentation (MedEd AI Journal Club) in which students will present a critical analysis of recent peer-reviewed publications on AI applications in medical education. Students will critically evaluate existing AI solutions and develop proposals for implementing AI tools to address specific challenges in medical education research.
