The use of generative artificial intelligence like ChatGPT in the educational environment raises questions about the nature of learning. Despite its easy access to information and assignment writing, there are concerns about students' actual acquisition of knowledge and understanding when they make use of the technology. So although it has never been so easy to collect thinking points, answer questions or draft an outline for an assignment, we need to ask ourselves: how can the use of ChatGPT promote learning, instead of just quickly providing answers to questions?
This talk will explore how generative artificial intelligence can be integrated into higher education teaching to foster relevant and in-depth learning. For that, the sometimes-complicated entanglement between the learning assumptions integrated into generative artificial technology, and its effects on our understandings of human learning will be explored. Based on that, it will discuss approaches and strategies that can be used to enhance the contribution of this technology to students' deeper understanding of a topic.
- The talk is for VIPs including PhD students and will be in English.
- The event includes lunch.
