COURSE INTRODUCTION

AI should support teaching—not replace professional judgement.

This Level 3 Award enables teaching professionals to critically explore the opportunities and risks presented by AI in teaching, learning and assessment. It considers learner engagement, administrative efficiency and personalised instruction alongside bias, data privacy, over-reliance, ethics and safeguarding.

Using AI without a framework

  • Adopt tools because they are popular.
  • Use generated content without sufficient review.
  • Overlook bias, privacy or safeguarding risks.
  • Let technology drive teaching decisions.

Professional AI practice

  • Start with the teaching or learning objective.
  • Select AI only where it adds educational value.
  • Evaluate outputs and protect learners.
  • Keep professional judgement at the centre.
