Higher-education course designers and researchers are testing structured AI workflows to integrate generative tools into course development. A project titled “Prompt: Wait, Confirm, Execute” outlines a staged prompt engineering model for faculty to create, review and deploy AI-assisted instructional materials. Practitioners say the model reduces hallucinations and preserves academic standards. At the same time, vendor-built AI toolboxes tailored to teachers — offering lesson plan generation, assessments, and tutor chatbots — are gaining traction as alternatives to general-purpose LLMs. Campus instructional designers caution that tool choice, data governance and alignment with learning outcomes remain critical to responsible adoption.
