Use AI to boost student engagement and motivation.
Enhancing Student Engagement with AI focuses on a specific, high-value goal: keeping learners motivated and involved. You learn how AI can detect early signs of disengagement from learning data, personalise content and nudges to individual motivation, and power interactive experiences — from adaptive feedback to conversational tutors — that hold attention. The course keeps the emphasis on genuine engagement and learning benefit, and on the ethics of monitoring students. You finish able to reason about applying AI to a student-engagement challenge.

This course covers AI for enhancing student engagement — detecting disengagement, personalising motivation and designing interactive, responsive learning experiences.
1. Detect early signs of disengagement.
2. Personalise content and motivational nudges.
3. Design interactive, responsive experiences.
4. Apply conversational and adaptive tutoring.
5. Address ethics of student monitoring.
• Educators and instructional designers
• Ed-tech developers and product teams
