Fundamentals of Curriculum Development
Gen-AI Assisted Online Course
April 29-30, 2025
This course aims to provide a practical, yet theoretically sound, systematic, and resource-enriched approach to the dynamic inter-related six steps of curriculum development.
Facilitators will employ experiential and collaborative learning approaches, enabling participants to engage in small group exercises, reflect on real-life experiences, and build upon existing knowledge. Each step will be introduced through interactive presentations, setting the stage for deeper exploration and application.
The course is further enhanced by the use of generative AI and a new brainstorming guide in each of the steps small group tasks, providing participants with innovative tools to apply to curriculum development.
Join us and learn how to develop an educationally effective curriculum while avoiding common errors. Whether you are developing a new curriculum or reviewing an existing one, you are welcome to join us!

Past Courses
One challenge in mastering program evaluation in health professions education is the perceived complexity and ethical concerns associated with evaluating educational interventions. This course is designed to demystify program evaluation through a practical, systematic, and GenAI-enhanced approach to Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI).
Participants will identify the role of program evaluation in improving educational outcomes, describe a stepwise approach to conducting evaluations, create a logic model to describe the program of interest, and design GenAI-assisted evaluation plans using engineered prompts.
The course integrates rigorous standards and ethics in evaluation, and explores the use of big data and AI technologies to enhance evaluation processes. By combining interactive lectures, case studies, hands-on small group exercises, and group discussions, this course equips educators with the skills to effectively assess and refine educational programs.
Join us to gain insights from experienced facilitators on employing advanced technological tools and avoiding common pitfalls in program evaluation. Whether you're new to program evaluation or seeking to enhance your existing skills, this course will provide valuable knowledge and practical tools to advance your professional practice.
