Description
Summary:In adult education, traditional curriculum design faces challenges like limited expertise and time constraints, especially with the need for customized, interdisciplinary content that achieves comprehensive learning outcomes quickly. To overcome these issues, we introduced the Goal-oriented Framework for AI Empowered Curriculum Design. This framework uses AI to streamline curriculum development, making it efficient and adaptable while ensuring content remains relevant and comprehensive. It incorporates ’learning by argumentation’ to deepen concept understanding. The framework’s effectiveness was evaluated through two methods: firstly, by expert curriculum designers who assessed its readiness and adaptability, practicability, content and curriculum enhancement, and efficiency; and secondly, through feedback from 241 students trained using this framework, focusing on its ability to meet individual learning needs and enhance the overall training experience. This dual evaluation approach provides a thorough assessment of the framework, highlighting its potential to transform curriculum development in adult education and professional training.
