Abstract
We investigate the use of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI), such as ChatGPT, as an integral part of higher education (HE) courses to boost students' AI literacy. Addressing the dual aspects of opportunity and challenge presented by GAI, we explore embedding GAI into curricula to prepare students for the digital future. Through a case study, we apply Technology-Mediated Learning (TML) theory to illustrate how integrating ChatGPT into assignment work can enhance student learning by demonstrating the professional application of AI, fostering interactive and collaborative learning, and encouraging critical engagement with AI. Our findings offer insights on integrating GAI in higher education, highlighting GAI’s role in developing AI literacy and equipping students for the workplace of the future by fostering entrepreneurial skills using AI.
