How We Did It
Goldi and Blu were developed through a unique sprint process that encouraged creativity and teamwork. Our interdisciplinary team—made up of web developers, tech specialists, creatives, communicators, project managers, and administrators—worked together to build AI tools that truly improve teaching and learning.
The needs of faculty and students guided every decision we made. While leveraging OpenAI models, we scrupulously tested and provided data throughout the process to ensure the most accurate results. Through rigorous testing, ongoing experimentation, and thoughtful adaptation, we made sure Goldi and Blu are practical and reliable. FIU Online is committed to continually gathering data and refining these AI companions so that teaching and learning can become a smoother endeavor for everyone.
What’s Next?
This is just the beginning. FIU Online will keep exploring the vast potential of AI in education, always with a focus on lifting the student learning experience. Stay tuned—there’s much more to come.
