Uses I’ve found for chatGPT in this regard:
(a) Creating syllabi for courses or workshops from published education research articles
(b) Comparing syllabi across different criteria and suggesting an integrated syllabus
(c) Extracting concepts and challenges for lesson/project ideas from transcripts of expert interviews/talks
And more…
All with the use of critical thinking guided by domain expertise, crafting precise prompts and checking through chatGPT's responses. It has saved me a lot of time and given me some ideas I didn't think about.
What have you found chatGPT useful for with regard to curriculum design and development?
Do you have any concerns about using chatGPT for such tasks?
Feel free to add any comment or opinion related to this topic.
GPT-3 has made headlines for its ability to use machine learning to produce texts that are nearly impossible to distinguish from human-produced writing. This powerful technology forces us to consider some fundamental questions — what opportunities does this next generation of AI give to researchers and publishers, as well as bad actors like papermills? And what does it mean for academic work in general?

ChatGPT has a lot to offer, I recently used it to draft multiple choice questions but I still had to do a lot of editing. It saves time and gets the job done but its not perfect. I have a paper highlighting some of these issues.
Emmanuel Chinonso Opara , could you please share your paper with us? Thank you.
Emmanuel Chinonso Opara I'll be happy to read your paper! I haven't thought about using chatGPT to do that.
I've written a few Medium articles about experimenting with chatGPT for a bunch of things, for example: https://medium.com/@realavi_58810/using-chatgpt-to-generate-detailed-syllabi-from-published-education-studies-c52300fa68c1

ChatGPT and learning design: what online content creation opportunities does it offer?
A guide to how ChatGPT and other AI writers can be used to help learning designers and faculty create course content more efficiently...
Through generating content in collaboration with AI, learning designers and universities can gain efficiencies in their practice and processes. For learning designers, AI enables them to (1) put time back in hands of time-poor faculty or (2) consider how the efficiencies can be reinvested in value-add tasks that enhance course design. For universities, this cuts down on course build times which can permit them to go to market faster and respond to skills gaps in more agile ways...

Dear all
They make a very good point here - with the advent of ChatGPT, the average and bad designers are going to be shown to be bad and they will be eliminated.

Joseph C Lee I agree that in general in many knowledge-based industries the junior/low-skilled employees could already be in trouble. chatGPT and its ilk nearly eliminate the needs for people with low levels of skills in instructional design, copywriting, programming, and other tasks.
Article Generative AI and education ecologies
How we might Incorporate generative AI tools in the curriculum to foster interdisciplinary collaborations with the more-than human. What if we shifted teaching and learning to facilitate new ways of being on the planet, so that we prioritised ourselves, one another as well as non-human and more-than-humans in our educational ecologies...
Generative AI is a topic on the minds of a lot of people these days. The emergence of automation intelligence, especially over the last two years, has disrupted the way industry thinks about future operations. Although scary to many people, generative AI ushers in new and exciting possibilities for manufacturers and process industries. It has the potential to reshape the way they analyze data, optimize operations and make critical decisions...

Adult learners a neglected species in the generative AI era
"Many adults seeking to upskill themselves face challenges of digital incompetence and limited access to advanced AI tools, hindering their success in technology-driven environments. There is a critical need for a conceptual framework to guide educators on implementing AI in adult education effectively...
The needs of adult learners remain underexplored, particularly in how they can leverage generative AI (GenAI) tools for work and education.
GenAI, popularised by ChatGPT, has emerged as a prominent trend and innovation with the potential to revolutionise education. The sweeping changes brought by GenAI in the educational arena have implications for adult learning.
In education, GenAI will usher in a world of adult learning that will be radically different from its predecessor. In adult education, where there are limited teacher capacity and resources, GenAI tools have the potential to expedite the rapid creation of high quality, personalised and engaging materials for the purposes of instruction and assessment in any given learning context..."
