SUMMARY:Generative AI for Academic Writing and Assessment: Issues and Opportunities - External Event
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday 8th March. 12:00 – 13:00 \nMike Sharples \nNew generative AI systems such as ChatGPT are powerful general-purpose language devices. They can hold conversations\, write plausible student essays\, summarise scientific texts\, produce lesson plans\, and draft academic papers. But they have a serious flaw – they are language models not knowledge bases; they output “continuations” not facts. As such\, they need to be approached with great care. In this talk I show examples of their use and misuse\, discuss the implications for student assessment and plagiarism\, suggest new opportunities for creative writing and argumentation with AI\, and end with some implications for educational development and policy making. Mike Sharples is Emeritus Professor of Educational Technology in the Institute of Educational Technology at The Open University and is the co-author of the book which is a great introduction to this form of software and its development https://www.routledge.com/Story-Machines-How-Computers-Have-Become-Creative-Writers/Sharples-Perez/p/book/9780367751975 \nZoom link: https://us06web.zoom.us/j/84984560388?pwd=VklLNnowWWFhKy9IWE9IUW15Ritudz09 \nMeeting ID: 849 8456 0388\nPasscode: 538659 \nFor more information please click here.

SUMMARY:ChatGPT: To ban or not to ban
DESCRIPTION:ChatGPT Online Events: Exploring Responses to AI in Higher Education \nThe rise of artificial intelligence (AI) has transformed various aspects of our lives\, including education. AI-powered technologies such as ChatGPT are becoming more popular in higher education\, providing students and educators with new ways to engage with course material\, collaborate\, and evaluate learning outcomes. However\, the increasing use of AI in education also raises important questions and concerns about its impact on teaching and learning. \n\nHow can we ensure that AI is used ethically and effectively in higher education?\nWhat is the appropriate response to the use of AI in assessments?\n\nChatGPT: To ban or not to ban \nAbout this event\nIs it possible to detect the use of ChatGPT in assessments? Is it right to punish students for using it or should we be trusting them? And is banning ChatGPT as futile as banning google? Join us to hear from a range of perspectives on the appropriate response to ChatGPT in higher education. \nSpeakers confirmed: \n\nDr Phil Anthony\, Head of Technology Enhanced Learning at the University of Kent\nStella Maris\, Rector’s Assessor at St Andrew’s University and QAA Student Strategic Advisory Committee member\nDr Bronwyn Eager\, Senior Lecturer at the University of Tasmania\nDr Irene Glendinning\, Academic Manager for Student Experience at Coventry University\n\nTo book a place please click here.

SUMMARY:LTExChange Symposium Event - Decolonising Learning and Teaching
DESCRIPTION:We are delighted to welcome Professor Sally Everett (Kings College London\, UK) as keynote speaker for the second LTExChange Symposium of the year entitled ‘Decolonising Learning and Teaching’ – book your place now! \nDecolonising Learning and Teaching \nIn this keynote talk we will explore issues of power\, privilege\, and pedagogy in our post pandemic learning landscape. Against a background of raging culture wars\, the Black Lives Matter movement\, and ever-increasing awarding gaps for black and minority ethnic student groups\, it has never been more important and more urgent to collectively “consider how our pedagogic practices might positively respond to calls for a more culturally sustaining pedagogy” (Hanesworth\, Bracken\, and Elkington\, 2019). In positively responding to this challenge\, I encourage us all to embrace the opportunity to become less myopic in our perspectives and strive towards practices that aim to liberate our students\, our pedagogies\, and ourselves\, from approaches built on European-centred and western frameworks that have invisibilised subaltern voices and indigenous knowledges. \n  \nAlthough this talk will be underpinned by literature\, its primary focus will be on sharing some practical ways to approach the decolonisation and diversification of our learning and teaching – thereby reframing and reconstructing the way we engage in university education. Challenging an institutional hierarchy and monopoly on knowledge is an incredibly daunting prospect and knowing where to start can lead to fear\, paralysis\, and confusion. Therefore\, I hope the discussion might help Teesside University continue in its development of a powerful and penetrating community of inclusive practice. This talk may mark the start of a journey for some\, and for others\, offer a useful reflection point and some encouragement to continue in their pursuit to overturn and challenge pedagogic tools of exclusion. In sharing ideas and coming together\, we are well positioned to collectively explore how we can sensitively and authentically occupy uncomfortable spaces and foster approaches that promote greater social justice\, and a more truthful view of the world to our students. \nTo book a place on this workshop\, please click here.  \nThis session is for TU staff only.
