Abstract [en]
Medical and health disciplines are facing a change of their clinical practices with the integration of new transformative technologies including artificial intelligence (AI). There is an interest to elevate knowledge and skills in designing and developing adaptive technology for clients, patients and practices. In this study the possibility to integrate education on human-centered AI in the education on advanced level of nurses, physiotherapists and occupational therapists was explored. A blueprint of a 3-course AI education on human-centered AI for health and wellbeing was developed and evaluated at two universities. The course contents range from theory to practical exercises with application to clinical practice on AI, responsible AI design and AI technology, with a structured progression between each level. The evaluation showed that the proposed courses could be integrated into the existing master programs to different extent, from full integration in 120-credit programs to limited integration in 60-credit programs. It was concluded that the proposed education is feasible and desirable to integrate, and future work will continue the development.
