Associate Professor Media & Culture Studies at Universiteit Utrecht

Tomorrow is Utrecht University's education event in the Academy building. At 9.30 I am in a panel discussion on GenAI in Education making three points: 1. GenAI reveals weaknesses in current curricula, where attention has shifted focus from PROCESS to PRODUCTS 2. It's not just GenAI! We need 'tool criticism' in our curricula so that students are able to critically reflect on the ethics and impact of digital tools (e.g Google Scholar) on knowledge production. 3. There are many reasons (privacy, climate, misinformation etc) against GenAI in Edu. It's implementation requires discussion and oversight. Have that conversation! * credits to the GW Taskforce I am part of, who helped sharpen these thoughts
