Overview
UDIT Academic Technology Services aims to provide personalized learning experiences to our students through the development of a platform that integrates artificial intelligence with the intellectual property of UD faculty. This ensures that our tool is tailored to our student body and serves as a reflection of UD’s courses and programs.
Development
To build the platform, the project team is utilizing foundation models from Amazon Web Services’ Bedrock, along with other AI models. Leveraging two decades of video content collected from our proprietary lecture capture system, our project team is building a private, internal platform, accessible to students through Canvas Learning Management System.
Impact
The project marks a pioneering effort in shaping the strategic integration of emerging AI, generative AI, and large language model (LLM) technologies within the University of Delaware and the broader higher education landscape.
