Tip of the Week 7/2023

The influence of AI in learning, teaching, and assessment?

Centre for Research in Assessment and Digital Learning (CRADLE) of Deakin University, Australia, has been organising a webinar series this semester, among many institutions of higher education, on the influence of AI in learning, teaching, assessment, and in the development of teaching and assessment.

As we haven’t yet organised an English-language discussion on the topic at the University of Eastern Finland, I warmly recommend taking some time to listen to or also listen to and watch this webinar series by CRADLE.

Why not also join their third webinar in the series, coming up on June 5, titled “The impact of ChatGPT on higher education: what have we learnt?” As they are webcasting from Australia, it will be an early morning session for us in Finland, starting at 7 AM in our time zone. Nevertheless, their focus on assessment makes this all the more pertinent for us teachers.

As per their own description, “The Centre for Research in Assessment and Digital Learning (CRADLE) researches assessment practices in the changing settings of education, which are increasingly embracing digital learning. Our aim is to improve and optimise learning in higher and professional education”.  

Best wishes, Susanna K.
