Artificial Intelligence in Higher Education

The interdisciplinary Komp-HI project aims to deepen and support subject-specific content and interdisciplinary skills in tandem. The focus of the interdisciplinary skills is on empathy and digital media skills.

Individual learning material and feedback will be provided during the pilot phase and evaluation in the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering. The use of AI systems, which are didactically and meaningfully embedded in teaching and learning scenarios, enables individualised learning experiences and promotes learning success. Several didactic concepts based on learning psychology are to be used.

The basic idea of the project is based on the provision of customised learning materials as well as individual and formative feedback throughout the entire learning process. In addition to the applicability, effectiveness and target achievement of the measures, aspects of acceptance on the part of teachers and learners should also be included. To this end, systematic piloting of AI-based learning innovations is planned within the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering.

AI-based learning innovations require the most precise possible analysis of individual competencies at the start of learning as well as the recording of learning progress in order to be able to accompany individualised learning processes and provide competency-based feedback.
