On the morning of July 5, Thanh Do University organized an in-depth training session for faculty under the theme: “Teaching and Designing Lessons with AI: Empowering Educators in the Age of Artificial Intelligence.” Part of the university’s strategic plan to stay updated with technological trends and enhance educational quality, the workshop provided faculty with an opportunity to explore, experience, and practice the latest tools and techniques in generative AI, teaching assistants, and the potential of AI in modern higher education. The session emphasized the critical role of AI in transforming education and the university’s strategic vision of empowering educators to lead students in a rapidly changing, technology-driven world.
Prof. Dr. Nguyen Xuan Khanh delivered a comprehensive overview of AI in higher education, highlighting the opportunities to personalize lessons, implement smart assessments, automate administrative tasks, and expand learning spaces. He encouraged faculty to embrace AI as a colleague, tool, and open knowledge resource, rather than shy away from it.
In addition, Prof. Khanh addressed the challenges of over-reliance on technology, the quality of information from generative AI, faculty digital literacy, and the need for pedagogical adjustments. An open discussion with participants clarified practical concerns, from ethical issues surrounding AI usage to how to integrate AI into specific courses.
Prof. Dr. Nguyen Xuan Khanh shared valuable insights into artificial intelligence
Discussions on how AI can personalize feedback for students, create self-practice questions, assist in answering subject-related queries, and support the translation of reference materials were also explored. The open, vibrant, and collaborative atmosphere concluded a productive day of training. Faculty left with new tools and skills, as well as a renewed commitment to integrating AI to enhance the quality of teaching at Thanh Do University.
The presentation, combining visual examples, practical tips, and personal experiences, captivated the attendees
The workshop also included hands-on practice in AI prompt engineering and designing personalized AI teaching assistants. Faculty learned how to interact effectively with AI tools, create lesson outlines, develop questions, and build class scenarios. Participants worked directly on their computers, supported by the instruction team, to practice creating prompts, building AI assistants, and refining these tools for their specific subjects and student groups.
Many discussions among faculty members were shared during the workshop
The university is confident that workshops like this will continue to “empower” faculty, who play a pivotal role in inspiring and shaping the educational journey of future generations in the AI era.
