Cómo Entrenar tu Dragón: A European Credit Transfer System Module to Develop Critical Artificial Intelligence Literacy in a PGCERT Programme for New Higher Education Lecturers

This paper summarizes the findings and main conclusions from the first presentation of the module “CETD23: Cómo entrenar a tu dragón: la inteligencia artificial generativa como herramienta para mejorar el aprendizaje en entornos online e híbridos”. This is an optional module accredited through the ECTS (European Credit Transfer System) and delivered as part of the “Plan de Formación de Docencia y Personal Investigador 2021–2025” of the Universidad de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria (ULPGC). The Plan de Formación is a development programme offered by Spanish universities to new and existing teaching staff, aimed at improving the quality of their teaching practises in line with Aneca’s Docencia regulations (like the PGCERT and PGCAPT programmes in the UK). The aim of module CETD23 is to explore the use of Generative AI (GenAI) to enhance learning and teaching and to build the AI literacy of ULPGC’s teaching staff. The module received high student satisfaction, with an average score of 4.84 on the Likert Scale, and achieved a 100% completion rate for the final summative project. The final conclusions highlight the need for universities to establish reglamentos (policies and guidance) on how to use GenAI to enhance learning and assessment, as well as to involve students as equal partners in the design and assessment of methods that use AI.
