Summary

This research explores how generative AI can bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application in professional education through role-play simulations. By utilizing a framework from the National University of Singapore, the research illustrates how large language models provide scalable, individualized practice for students in fields like law, nursing, and business. The research emphasizes that successful implementation requires more than just technology; it necessitates specialized prompt engineering, faculty development, and robust ethical oversight. Furthermore, the research argues that these AI tools foster competency-based learning by offering a safe environment for students to master complex interpersonal and decision-making skills. Ultimately, the researchserves as a strategic guide for academic leaders to integrate AI-powered experiential learning while ensuring fairness and institutional support.
