Emerging technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) are at the cutting edge of 21st-century innovation. They promise to revolutionise teaching, assessment, and research, maximising effectiveness and impact. Yet, the use of AI/ML algorithms raises a plethora of moral issues around exclusion and challenges fundamental values of fairness, privacy, and autonomy. This workshop will explore how to effectively utilise emerging technologies for teaching, assessment, and research while promoting inclusion and avoiding algorithmic oppression, coloniality, bias, domination, and hierarchies.
If you would like to present your ideas at the workshop, please email the title of your presentation to Dr Thanos Fragkandreas ([email protected] ) by May 31st.
