AI & education at Maastricht University
Artificial Intelligence (AI) and data-driven technologies have the potential to address some of the biggest needs in education today and innovate teaching and learning practices. However, rapid technological developments inevitably bring multiple risks and challenges.
Maastricht University recognises the importance of harnessing the opportunities of AI technologies while ensuring a safe and effective integration of such technologies into the PBL curriculum in alignment with the core learning principles Contextual, Collaborative, Constructive and Self-directed (CCCS).
This page examines the educational implications of two AI applications: Large Language Models like ChatGPT and Learning Analytics.

Online micro-module 'Responsible use of Generative AI'
The Maastricht University Library has developed an online micro-module on the responsible use of Generative AI for students. This module provides a brief introduction to the key aspects of using GenAI responsibly. It can serve as a starting point for discussions and be used in courses and classes to equip students with basic knowledge on the appropriate use of GenAI, including its do's and don'ts. For any questions on incorporating the module into your curriculum, course, or class, please contact the University Library.
