Abstract
An academic course writer's systematic approach for utilising generative AI for online course material creation to for delivery via a Learning Management System will be shared. The approach significantly improved academic content quality and efficiency and the final result necessitated minimal to no revisions post-delivery to the learning design team. By integrating principles of andragogy, this approach acknowledges the maturity and self-direction of adult learners. It enhances their learning experience by synthesising complex information into formats that are not only engaging but also conducive to better comprehension and retention. Successful replication of the approach involves defining AI content roles, mastering prompt creation, using specific plugins, and organising content effectively, chunking the sections to be authored. This enables the author to analyse for flow, unintended omissions or bias and increase emphasis on critical learning. This method was initially validated by academic reviews within the team and forthcoming student evaluations.
