Chairs will examine the opportunities and challenges of integrating AI into teaching and learning within academic departments and divisions. The discussion will focus on key areas where AI could impact education, such as supporting personalized learning experiences, providing student feedback and support, assisting with assessment, and enhancing classroom engagement. What cultural and organizational changes are needed for meaningful AI integration? What are ethical considerations and practical strategies for navigating AI adoption in academic settings? Participants will explore these questions with an experienced chief academic officer.
