Description
Join OLC for an insightful webinar that delves into the transformative potential of Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) in educational settings. As this cutting-edge technology rapidly evolves, educators and researchers are grappling with its applications and future impact on online, blended, and in-person learning environments.
In this session, the panel will explore the revolutionary possibilities AI offers for reshaping teaching and learning models. Despite the potential risks, AI could unlock new opportunities for progressive educational goals. Drawing on the rich tradition of philosophy, we will examine the ethical, ontological, and technological dimensions of AI in education.
The discussion will be anchored by insights from renowned philosophers such as Gunther Anders, Michel Foucault, Paolo Freire, Benjamin Bloom, and Hannah Arendt. We will introduce a framework to guide the ethical and humanizing use of AI in modern education, with a focus on the broader political, social, and cultural implications.
Session outcomes include:
- Understand the revolutionary potential of Generative AI in education
- Explore ethical considerations and risks for employing AI educational contexts
- Learn from philosophical perspectives on technology and education
- Apply a theoretical framework to assess ethical AI use in teaching and learning
- Review practical examples and implications for future research and practice
- Identify how and where to include AI in course design and instruction
Please join us for an informative discussion on generative AI. There will also be time reserved for attendees for an open Q&A.
