Some of the more welcome advancements include personalised learning, data-driven governance and AI as a partner in education and research. But in spite of their apparent merits, universities must remain alert to the longer-term implications of AI and consider the many conceivable futures for universities in the AI era.
Through guided discussion, workshop participants will address some of the potential consequences of an overreliance on AI:
Participation in the workshop is open to representatives of EUA members in a leadership position or overseeing the institution-wide integration of digital technologies. The workshop is designed to facilitate exchange through active, creative and expansive contribution from participants.
Applicants are invited to express their interest by 15 October, outlining their professional experience in digitalisation/AI adoption, including notable developments undertaken at institutional level. Participants will be selected with due consideration for the diversity of EUA’s membership.
