Applied Generative AI

Students learn how to use generative AI for data analysis, performance analysis, and project planning while applying structured prompting, validation, privacy awareness, and audience-ready communication.

What You'll Gain

Stronger AI Workflow Skills

Students learn how to structure prompts with clear context, tasks, formats, success criteria, and follow-up steps.

Better Analytical Validation

Students practice checking AI-generated claims, assumptions, calculations, evidence, and limitations before using outputs.

Privacy-Aware AI Use

Students learn when to anonymize, redact, or constrain sensitive data before using AI in performance-related contexts.

Project-Ready Deliverables

Students create AI-assisted plans, summaries, timelines, stakeholder messages, and risk registers that still require human judgment.

Units

The curriculum is organized into flexible, task-based units. Choose the ones that align with your objectives and map them directly into your existing syllabus.

Unit 1: AI for Data Analysis

Use generative AI as an analytical assistant for grounded, structured outputs.

  • Structured analytical prompts
  • Data-backed context
  • Drill-down, pivot, and synthesis follow-ups
  • Markdown, JSON, templates, and chart-ready outputs
  • Adversarial validation of AI claims

Analyze performance data with privacy, comparison, and compliance in mind.

  • Privacy-first prompt design
  • Anonymization and pseudonymization
  • Comparative dimensions and time boundaries
  • Normalization and fair comparison
  • Stakeholder-specific narratives

Use AI to draft structured project artifacts and planning materials.

  • Work breakdown structures
  • Schedules, dependencies, and constraints
  • Stakeholder communication matrices
  • Risk registers and mitigation plans
  • Executive-ready synthesis

The Shift in Generative AI

Generative AI is no longer just a tool for quick answers or polished writing. Students must learn how to guide, test, and refine AI outputs for real analytical and planning work.

Students must now do more than prompt once. They must:

  • Ground AI with useful context and data
  • Iterate through follow-up questions
  • Check assumptions, evidence, and calculations
  • Protect sensitive information
  • Adapt outputs for real audiences

AI can accelerate analysis and planning, but it does not replace judgment.

Generative AI increases the importance of validation, context, privacy, and human oversight.

A Look Inside the Learning Experience

Students learn through applied AI workflows, guided prompt practice, and real-world planning scenarios.

Practical Learning Resources

Students work with analysis prompts, performance data scenarios, project plans, stakeholder messages, and risk artifacts.

Interactive Assessment and Feedback

Students answer questions about prompt structure, grounding, privacy, compliance, validation, and audience fit.

Hands-On Validation Exercises

Students challenge AI outputs, revise prompts, check for invented claims, and improve deliverables before using them.
