Michael Feldstein, a well-known ed tech expert, has led an open-source project to build a chatbot that helps teachers design their own courses. The AI Learning Design Assistant, or ALDA, is a free tool that guides teachers through the course design process. Feldstein has worked with a group of about 70 educators to develop ALDA, which has the potential to democratize instructional design. The tool is widely applicable in higher education and has potential in K-12 education as well. ALDA works by probing teachers to understand their students and learning objectives, then helping them create coursework and assessments. The project aims to make instructional design more accessible to teachers at all levels.
