Project scope
What is the main goal for this project?

The higher education industry is undergoing rapid transformation as everyone adjusts to the sudden advancements in artificial intelligence technology and its widespread adoption. Students are using ChatGPT as a writing calculator and their writing output is exploding. While our first instinct might be to ban these technologies in education, it seems that great change has already taken place and AI is here to stay. Therefore, our view is quite opposite from the knee-jerk reaction of rejecting these tools. We want to make sure that both educators and students learn how to teach and learn with AI, respectively. Ultimately, LLM can empower professors to teach about the latest advancements hidden in the growing body of peer-reviewed publications while also providing activities for students to foster the development of their scientific literacy and critical thinking.


The goal of this project is to create 8 white papers that will be used to generate leads for Summations. The white paper should provide an overview of the company, its mission, and the Summations instructional platform. It should also include research on topics that professors want to know during their teaching, information about the benefits of using the platform, as well as any case studies or success stories that can be used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the platform.


What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?

By the end of the project, students should have completed the following tasks:


- Research and create an overview of Summations, its mission, and the Summations instructional platform.


- Identify and describe the benefits of using the Summations instructional platform.


- Gather case studies or success stories that demonstrate the effectiveness of the platform.


- Create 8 white papers that include all of the above information.



Final deliverables should include:


- 8 white papers surrounding the topic of active learning, evidence-based teaching, AI in higher education, and research-informed teaching.



How will you support learners in completing the project?

We prioritize providing our team members with ample opportunities to enhance their skills, expand their knowledge, and advance their careers.


Here are some key aspects that set us apart:


-Robust Training and Development Programs: We offer comprehensive training programs, workshops, and learning resources to support our employees' professional growth. Whether it's through internal training sessions, external courses, or mentoring programs, we invest in our employees' development to help them reach their full potential.


-Career Pathing and Advancement Opportunities: We believe in recognizing and promoting talent from within. Our organization offers clear career pathing frameworks that outline the various opportunities available for employees to advance their careers. We provide guidance, support, and resources to help individuals achieve their career goals within our organization.


-Collaboration and Cross-Functional Projects: We foster a collaborative work environment where employees have the chance to work on cross-functional projects and initiatives. This not only allows for knowledge sharing and skill development but also promotes a sense of teamwork and camaraderie among colleagues.


-Employee Well-being and Work-Life Balance: We understand the importance of work-life balance and prioritize employee well-being. We offer flexible work arrangements, wellness programs, and initiatives to support a healthy work-life integration. We believe that a happy and balanced workforce leads to increased productivity and overall job satisfaction.


-Recognition and Rewards: We have a culture of recognizing and celebrating achievements. We regularly acknowledge and reward employees' outstanding contributions, whether through formal recognition programs, performance-based bonuses, or other incentives. We believe in creating a positive and motivating work environment that recognizes and values employee efforts.

What skills or technologies will help learners to complete the project?

All the tools and resources will be provided to the students in support of their learning. However, it is beneficial to have a basic understanding of:


- Content marketing strategies and techniques.


- SEO optimization.
