Ghazali bin Abdul Wahab’s Post

We had a wonderful dialogue with Spencer and Ghazali in exploring the use of AI in school. Ghazali raised some excellent points on how AI personalization can revolutionize learning experiences for students. The idea of AI catering to individual learning styles and paces is certainly exciting. We also need to emphasize the importance of ethical implementation of such tools. As AI continues to make strides in the education sector, it's crucial to ensure it complements, rather than replaces, human educators. Let's foster a discussion – what are your thoughts on the role of AI in education? Share your comments below!

There's a new group of faculty on our campus who are undermining student success goals like Georgia State University's President Brian Blake's "Four Pillars" initiative. They are AI-Luddites, and they are so afraid of #GAI that they will sacrifice all the progress we have made in the past 20 years. #AI #GAI #AIinEducation #GSU #teachingandlearning

More than a year after the "#AI spring" suddenly upended notions of what could be possible both inside and outside the #classroom, most institutions are still racing to catch up and establish policies and guidelines that can help their leaders, staff, #faculty, and #students effectively and safely use these exciting and powerful new technologies and practices. WCET is proud to collaborate with EDUCAUSE on the planning and #datacollection for the 2024 EDUCAUSE Action Plan: #AIPolicies and Guidelines. #AIcapabilities and needs are evolving rapidly, and #highereducation leaders need to take action now.

The emergence of gen AI has challenged leaders everywhere to embrace its potential benefits while preserving and enhancing human potential. Higher education can play a unique role in envisioning a future in which society trusts humans and machines to work together while leveraging technology to make education more accessible, affordable, and rewarding. Our latest article explores how postsecondary institutions can safely navigate this journey and effectively use gen AI to support administrators, staff, faculty, and students in easing their burdens and enhancing their work. Let me know what you think. https://lnkd.in/eJ8WEQJw #DeloitteHigherEd #Highereducation #GenAI #HigherEd #Deloitte Tamara Cibenko Askew Roy Mathew Tiffany Fishman Bob Caron

Generative AI (GenAI) is quickly transforming higher education, creating an opportunity for Ontario’s PSE sector to reimagine how it supports student success. Doing so will require collaboration between students, faculty, departments and institutions, which includes engaging in ongoing dialogue and sharing best practices. It will also require increased clarity and awareness around how students and staff can use GenAI to make learning more accessible, as well as under what circumstances the use of these tools is permissible. HEQCO conducted a study to determine how GenAI can be used to make learning more accessible for all students, including those with disabilities, and the barriers to its use faced by students, instructors and staff in PSE. HEQCO surveyed over 500 Ontario students about their experiences with GenAI and interviewed eleven support staff from nine publicly assisted colleges and universities in the province.

Writing for the Higher Education Policy Institute's recent publication Professor Kathleen Armour of UCL says, in her piece on the risks and challenges of AI in higher education; "AI is here to stay and education in higher education will have to adopt, adapt, collaborate and lead ... we need to ensure that higher education pedagogies and processes are keeping up while retaining a critical eye on the risks. Yet, as noted earlier, ChatGPT and similar tools have the potential to offer students access to new forms of learning assessment support. If we collaborate with AI developers to address the challenges, our students and the sector have much to gain.

"The Future of Education"—What an incredible topic to discuss recently at Melbourne Connect (University of Melbourne), surrounded by innovative thought leaders from education, business, and government. I am incredibly grateful to have been invited to share my thoughts and learn alongside such inspiring and diverse minds. Eduard Hovy facilitated rich discussions, engaging us in the topic of Generative AI in education.   We considered the impact and changes needed to improve Indigenous knowledge, Instructional Methods, Learning with Generative AI, Assessment, Engagement, and Teaching to shape what the future of education could be. Our discussions included how Generative AI will transform student learning and teaching practices, the importance of human intelligence and innovation as sustainable foci in a changing world, how we adapt teaching practices, the skills our students will need, and rethinking assessment to shift from tests to portfolios. We also emphasised learning from Indigenous knowledge to strengthen our educational direction, and the power of student agency and autonomy. The challenges of equity within a broken education system that is difficult to shift were also addressed, and how essential it is to change this system so it is relevant, inclusive, and accessible – how can we make this possible?   These moments build the momentum needed to lead us toward improving education for generations to come. Thank you to everyone involved, including the amazing staff at Melbourne Connect, who made this experience outstanding. I look forward with optimism to experience where this takes us next. #education #futureofeducation #inspiringminds #thoughtleaders #edreform #edumazing #AIineducation #GenerativeAI

My two biggest takeaways from last week’s Conference on Higher Education Pedagogy (CHEP) at Virginia Tech: the AI imperative in higher education, and the opportunity to create fearless learning environments. On AI, we heard how: 1.     Higher education has between 5-10 years before AI can achieve 100% human replication – we have some time to react and embrace AI, but not a lot 2.     So far, AI has provoked one of two responses among most academics: panic and over-reacting to the hype, or ignorance and hoping it will not impact us 3.     The AI landscape is changing so fast that the most sensible response at this stage is for each of us to start our AI exploration and journey immediately – use free tools (there are tons!), become AI-literate and digitally-fluent, and begin to introduce AI-related content and exercises into our classes 4.     Many thanks to Dale Pike and the many AI-focused speakers for such stimulating, thought-provoking presentations! On fearless classrooms, we heard how: 1.     80% of the population has an educational “shame story”. In my case, I counted at least 6 of my elementary and high school teachers who told me I would never successfully learn a specific subject or skill 2.     The prevailing mindset among students graduating from high school is that 100% is “perfect” and anything less is a “mistake”, and therefore something to fear. In contrast, universities expect students to immediately engage in critical thinking where there may not be a “right” answer – an intimidating mindset shift that university instructors must facilitate 3.     As university instructors, we have the opportunity to reframe fear and failure. We should try to get students to say “I’m not there yet, but I can get there (with my instructor’s help)” instead of “I’m afraid of failure and I don’t want to study this material anymore” 4.     Many thanks to Catherine Denial Denial and Amy Johnson for their ground-breaking thinking on this critical topic! Many thanks to Catherine Amelink and the entire Virginia Tech Center of Excellence in Teaching and Learning team for such an inspiring program - can’t wait until next year! #chep #virginiatech #ai #businesseducation #universityeducation

AI & Holistic Education: Shaping Global Citizens of Tomorrow In today's fast-paced world, it's crucial for education to evolve beyond traditional methods. Holistic education, which nurtures a child's mind, body, and spirit, is the foundation for developing global citizens.
