Monash University - 10 minute chats on AI

Monash University's (Melbourne, Australia) Teach HQ which supports teaching and learning, has a series of on-line chats on Gen AI.  The presenters include learning specialists, researchers and thought leaders (from the UK, US 0f A  and Australia) in teaching and learning, technology-enhanced learning and on assessments..

The first video in with Mike Sharples from the Open University in the UK recorded in May. The videos are labelled by presenter name but the drop-down menu, indicates the topic presented. Worth dipping in and out of as the talks range across many aspects of AI including ethics, impact from the sustainability point of view, the many dimensions of AI literacy, and tensions / power relationships through the use of Gen AI. 

Worth the time to listen to relevant recordings as they drill down dipper into the hype of Gen AI, the press to integrate AI into education (there are pluses, minuses and consequences), and the broader social issues that cannot be solved through utilising Gen AI.
