Description
This article explores the transformative impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on business education and teaching strategies, focusing on the instructor’s evolving role as a coach, the use of AI as a student assistant, and the development of AI-related skills. While AI cannot fully replace human instructors—lacking the capacity for existential reflection, value transmission, and societal context—it has significant potential to enhance efficiency, enabling instructors to prioritize student creativity and critical thinking. The study highlights various AI applications, such as ClassPoint AI for interactive quizzes, GradeScope for automated grading, and PowerPoint Speaker Coach for presentation skills, as well as tools like Copilot, Perplexity AI, Quillbot, Canva, Tavily AI, Explain Paper, and Julius AI for data analysis, visualization, AI ethics, and communication skill development. Additionally, the paper emphasizes the importance of aligning AI integration with industry demands by maintaining collaboration with businesses, attending AI workshops and conferences, and organizing campus AI information sessions. These efforts ensure educators effectively incorporate AI to prepare students for a rapidly evolving business environment.
