ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE TOOLS IN SPECIALIZED MBA COURSEWORK FOR MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS

We report on active and engaged learning with collaborative inquiry in the AI enhanced, MBA professional track coursework.In this coursework, we utilize a teaching approach that requires students to derive knowledge by engaging collaboratively with medical center partners, and it has proven more effective than traditional didactic approaches in developing innovative thinking, knowledge creation capacity, and professional skills.With this approach, dubbed, Nexus Learning, students learn by designing and constructing actual solutions to real-life medical problems.AI enhanced, MBA course projects outcomes are tied to curriculum and learning goals, and are based on authentic real-world issues that students care about, and exhibit empathy for patients who go through those issues.Simulated exercises utilizing IBM Business Analytics Enterprise software that provides a single entry no-code content hub to discover, personalize and recommend business analytics content, is utilized.It is an analytics platform that combines predictive analytics, reporting, data analytics and data integration capabilities natively out-of-the-box to help students navigate real data healthcare challenges.In addition, AI Trilogy package is employed to provide students with actionable recommendations based on the data.It provides analysis of independent variables (inputs) to help determine which ones are most important in the healthcare models.At Jefferson Center for Digital Health, we seek to provide answers and explore the processes, actions, challenges, and outcomes of learning, teaching, and research.The goal is to provide a platform for professors, students, researchers, from a range of academic fields, interested in exploring and giving their contribution to educational issues that impact health and wellbeing of communities.The International Conference on Education and New Developments (END) provides an avenue to promote growth in research methods intimately related to teaching, learning, and applications in Education.It aims to illustrate developments and new ways of thinking in Projects and Trends, as well as Teaching, Learning, and Research, and their impact on healthy and thriving communities.
