Abstract
This article explores the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and innovative teaching methods in epidemiology education, emphasizing a balanced approach to enhance learning outcomes. While traditional teaching focuses on core concepts and rubric-based evaluation offers consistency, overreliance on these methods can lead to superficial understanding. Creative and experiential learning activities, such as poems, cartoons, and ungrading, foster deeper engagement and mastery. Technological tools such as simulated outbreak investigations, virtual epidemiology games, and augmented reality programs provide hands-on experience and inspire motivated learning. Emphasizing critical thinking and practical skills, a balanced approach leveraging rubrics, AI, and innovative methods is essential for comprehensive and effective epidemiology education.
