Instructor‑Packaged AI Course Skills

Instructors can bundle syllabi, reading annotations, and their own interpretive stance into platform 'skills' (small AI apps) that students upload into chat AI systems to get tailored, Socratic tutoring tied to a specific class. These skill files make pedagogical preparation portable and automatable, while embedding instructor framing and creating reliance on third‑party platforms and their upload mechanics. — Widespread adoption would shift prep from classroom to private AI sessions, raise questions about academic oversight, platform gatekeeping, bias in automated tutoring, and the labor of building and maintaining course skills.
