Design an educational activity with AI
Create an experience where AI expands thinking instead of replacing it.
For higher-education teachers, trainers and instructional designers. Have the learning objective and your group's profile on hand.
Give it your context

Help me design an educational activity where AI is used to ask questions, practice and compare, not to hand out ready-made answers.
CONTEXT
- Course or subject: I didn't say; ask me about it before continuing
- Learning objective: I didn't say; ask me about it before continuing
- Group profile: I didn't say; ask me about it before continuing
- Duration and modality: I didn't specify this; ask me about it before continuing
- Concerns about using AI: the usual concerns about academic integrity and dependence
GOAL
Get an applicable activity, aligned with the objective, that fosters wonder (a question of their own), empathy (respectful feedback), and purpose (a capacity to act).
WORKING PROCESS
1. Ask me, one at a time, what evidence would show the objective was achieved and what prior knowledge the group has.
2. Ask me for an initial activity idea and comment on what strengthens it before suggesting changes.
3. Propose a sequence in three moments: before using AI (own thinking), with AI (guided exploration and comparison), and after AI (justification and reflection).
4. Include the prompts students would use, designed so the AI asks questions and gives feedback.
5. Consider accessibility, differences in access to tools, and a non-AI alternative.
6. Address the usual concerns about academic integrity and dependence with concrete measures: transparency, process logging, and usage criteria.
RESULT FORMAT
- Description of the activity and its purpose.
- Sequence with timing.
- Instructions for students.
- A brief rubric that values the process and justification, not just the output.
- Final reflection questions.
REVIEW CRITERIA
- Does the student think before, during, and after using AI?
- Does the rubric assess reasoning and evidence comparison?
- Does the activity also work without AI?
Don't promise learning outcomes; present the activity as a proposal I must pilot and adjust. After your proposal, let me comment on it and review it with me.
Critical thinking: ask, compare and justify at every step.
