Description

The GenAI-Ped framework is a structured four-phase approach to guide GenAI integration in programming education while preserving foundational programming principles and higher-order thinking skills. The article states it is designed "to guide GenAI integration in programming education and ensure that foundational programming principles and higher-order thinking skills are preserved and enhanced." It adapts a self-regulated learning framework, Bloom's taxonomy, needs analysis, an AI-Lab prompt-engineering framework, and Universal Design for Learning principles across four phases: learner needs analysis and objective development, GenAI tool analysis, teaching/assessment/prompt engineering methods, and lesson-level GenAI integration.

Design Implications

Context

Requirements

  • Requires learner needs analysis, SMART objectives grounded in Bloom's taxonomy, evaluated and configured GenAI tools, and formative plus summative assessment aligned with learning objectives

Constraints

  • Adapted from prior frameworks (Prasad et al. SRL, Roth et al. UDL, Dickey et al. AI-Lab); presented as a proposal built from review findings, not empirically validated in this article

Target Learners

  • programming students in higher education

Learning Goals

  • foundational programming logic
  • higher-order thinking skills
  • prompt engineering competence

Claims

  • Universal Design For Learning Principles
