GMAC’s AI in Business Education case study series spotlights the integration of artificial intelligence in graduate management education, focusing on curriculum development, administrative processes, and strategic applications. Learn how MIT Sloan brought together a pilot group of faculty members and provided training, a collaborative discussion environment, and technical and financial support in order to experiment simultaneously with a wide range of generative AI use cases.

Quick Facts

  • Changing technology: The community approach has the significant advantage of many people watching the market and identifying changing and newly developed tools and opportunities.
  • Identifying the right projects: By supporting the faculty with a “backward design” process, which focuses on identifying the desired results and students’ learning processes first, faculty were able to self-select which projects and use cases were worth pursuing.
  • Ongoing support and engagement: As the first pilot project came to an end, the Teaching and Learning Technology team focused on developing the small number of more complex innovations while the project leads are focused on enlisting a new set of volunteers for the second project run.
