Overview

During  Critical Learning in the Age of AI offered at  Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam  you examine how AI systems work, analyze AI-generated content for bias and misinformation, and apply learning, cognitive, and ethical theories to real study situations. 

Key facts:

Through discussions and workshops, you develop a Personal Education Plan (PEP) to guide responsible, independent, and meaningful learning in an AI-rich university environment.

By the end of this course, students will be able to:

  • Describe and explain how generative AI systems produce content and identify key features that distinguish AI-generated from human-generated work in academic settings.
  • Map and analyse the main stakeholders involved in the creation, use, and regulation of generative AI in education, highlighting their roles and interests.
  • Evaluate how generative AI influences key social and institutional contexts, such as universities, research, and media, and discuss implications for learning and academic integrity.

Programme Structure

  • The first week focuses on personal learning and reflection. Students investigate how AI tools affect their study habits, apply learning theory to evaluate when AI supports or hinders understanding, and begin developing strategies for intentional, critical engagement with AI.
  • The second week expands toward systems and responsibility. Students map the stakeholders involved in AI and education, analyze power dynamics, and debate ethical questions about authorship, accountability, and academic integrity.
