2025 Horizon Action Plan: Building Skills and Literacy for Teaching with GenAI
Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) is having a profound impact on higher education. In the 2025 EDUCAUSE Horizon Report: Teaching and Learning Edition, GenAI was included—either explicitly or implicitly—in all six of the key technologies and practices anticipated to have significant impact on the future of teaching and learning:
- AI Tools for Teaching and Learning
- Faculty Development for GenAI
- AI Governance
- Shoring Up Cybersecurity
- Evolving Teaching Practices
- Critical Digital Literacy
Considering this sweeping impact, we assembled a global panel of experts to envision their preferred future of GenAI in higher education and create an action plan to get to that future.
Rather than reacting to change as it comes, we can play an active role in creating the future we want to see. No matter where you sit at your institution, you’ll find actionable advice in the report.
