Teaching and Learning
Educational Artificial Intelligence Strategy
At Tecnológico de Monterrey, we use Artificial Intelligence (AI) to transform the way we teach and learn, promoting the development of professionals who integrate AI into their discipline. Our approach is centered on three key strategies:
Foundations of AI to empower human abilities:
We aim for students to develop key AI-related skills—such as critical thinking, ethics, and innovation—to enhance their performance in a world where AI is increasingly relevant.
Leveraging AI for teaching and learning processes:
Preparing and supporting faculty is a priority. Our strategy includes training activities, exploration spaces, and innovation initiatives that help educators become familiar with AI tools and design learning experiences that integrate these technologies. We offer a wide range of development opportunities, from introductory courses to specialized bootcamps.
Development of professionals who integrate AI into their discipline:
We strive to ensure that our students graduate with the ability to use artificial intelligence technologies specific to their field of study.
AI and our faculty
The integration of AI into teaching and learning represents an opportunity for faculty to innovate and transform their teaching practices. The goal is to better prepare students for their future careers, address their learning needs and interests in a personalized way, and optimize professors’ time. To ensure the effective use of AI, faculty engage in continuous professional development.
Through the Center for Faculty Development and Educational Innovation (CEDDIE), Tecnológico de Monterrey supports its professors in integrating artificial intelligence into their teaching practice. Practical resources, webinars, expert talks, workshops, hackathons, summits, and gatherings are offered to foster the development of key competencies and tools for designing learning experiences.
In summary, CEDDIE is committed to advising, supporting, and training faculty in the strategic use of AI, focusing on three main areas:
- Integrating artificial intelligence into the design of learning experiences.
- Enabling students, through their professors, to develop competencies for using AI in their field of study.
- Fostering creative ideas that improve various aspects of the educational process through this technology.
AI Summit: Faculty projects
The AI Summit is an event launched as part of Tecnológico de Monterrey’s efforts to support and train its teaching community in the strategic use of AI. The goal of the event is to create practical solutions that address real teaching and learning needs through AI tools.
In the 2024 edition, 180 faculty members participated, presenting projects in which they integrated AI tools into learning activities and instructional sequences to improve teaching and enrich classroom learning experiences.
The event's projects focused on areas such as: Tool application, Assessment and feedback, Development of disciplinary competencies, Personalized learning and tutoring, Simulations, and Immersive environments.
Currently, these projects are being implemented in classes to measure their impact on student learning, ensuring the ethical and responsible use of this technology. Future editions of the event are expected to lead to the development of more projects that enhance the use of AI within various disciplines.

Skill Studio
Skill Studio is an AI tool created by Tec de Monterrey that is part of TECgpt, designed to facilitate the configuration and reuse of prompts. Essentially, it allows users to design "skills" with predefined variables, making the creation of standardized and automated tasks—both educational and administrative—easier and faster.
Once created, these "skills" can be shared as templates for institutional use, saving time and improving efficiency for those who use them.
Since its official launch in October 2024, more than 1,000 professors have used Skill Studio for activities such as content development, designing learning activities, and creating assessment instruments, among other applications. Through this, the tool aims to streamline routine tasks and foster innovation in educational practice.
ChatGPT
ChatGPT in TECgpt is an institutional chatbot that enables faculty and staff to interact with one of the most advanced AI models through a simple and user-friendly interface.
Users can ask questions via text or voice, solve doubts, upload documents for interaction, and even generate images. All of this is done in a secure and controlled environment, without concerns about data privacy, as the information is not used to train future models.
Adaptive Learning
At Tec de Monterrey, we use Adaptive Learning Strategies to personalize education. This involves applying modern teaching methods, data analytics, and advanced AI algorithms to design customized learning paths for each student. This approach makes their educational process more effective and efficient by taking into account their level, profile, and specific needs.
Additionally, this strategy allows teachers to identify areas where their groups may be struggling, enabling them to adjust their teaching methods, improve student performance, and optimize overall outcomes.
This tool is part of our initiative to ensure student success, helping them level up their knowledge from the start of their academic program, especially in STEM subjects (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics), which are often crucial during the early stages of their education
Strategic Resource Areas
For all educators
CEDDIE supports teachers in integrating artificial intelligence into educational practices through resources, events, and training. This enables educators to enhance their students' learning experiences with innovative tools and methods.
For Tec de Monterrey’s educators
The Teaching Hub offers strategies, activities, and resources designed to maximize the ethical and effective use of artificial intelligence in education. Its purpose is to transform teaching practices through methodologies that foster critical thinking and creativity. This site was developed by Educational Innovation and Digital Learning.
For Tec de Monterrey’s educators
Edutools is Tec de Monterrey's Educational Technology platform that brings together various tools designed to create and enhance learning experiences. It makes it easier for teachers to apply these technologies in their educational practices while fostering an active community by sharing best practices. This platform has been particularly recognized for its popularity among colleagues in Latin America.
For Tec de Monterrey’s educators and students
This initiative promotes the ethical and responsible use of artificial intelligence in education, through guidelines that ensure its conscious integration aligned with institutional values.
For Tec de Monterrey’s educators, students and staff
The Tec de Monterrey Library provides students, faculty, researchers, and staff with high-value reference and consultation information resources on topics such as artificial intelligence, technology, education, and educational innovation, to support deep, active, and multimodal learning.
For the general community
Developed by the IFE Observatory, this initiative provides open resources to enrich classes, projects, and research in generative artificial intelligence. Its goal is to drive educational innovation and facilitate access to knowledge in cutting-edge fields.
