In this thought-provoking session, we’ll explore:
- Real-world examples of bias in AI-powered educational technology: Dr Melton will dive deeper than headlines to understand how biases in data sets and algorithms can perpetuate inequalities and lead to unfair outcomes for students.
- Human-centred AI at the heart of responsible pedagogy: Dr MacAuslan will share his experiences building a human-centred approach to AI integration in his classroom, ensuring technology augments, not replaces, the irreplaceable role of educators.
- Actionable steps for mitigating risks in your own practice: Dr Davis will provide concrete tools and frameworks for identifying ethical considerations in your choice and implementation of AI-powered tools, paving the way for responsible use in your classroom.
- Building a future-proof pedagogy with AI: We’ll delve into the ongoing discourse on the ethical implications of AI in education and explore how educators can contribute to shaping a responsible and equitable future for technology-enhanced learning.
