But, at the same time, there are concerns about its misuse, job losses, exploitation, disregard for intellectual property and its impact on human rights and democracy.
This month the digital education reading group discusses the importance of online identity for online learners, and how we might foster online learning community ecosystems.
As we navigate the future of education, we’re blending human expertise with AI innovations to improve the way we make online learning. Here are six ways we’ve used AI to inspire and assist us in our work.
The theme for this month’s digital education reading group is inspired by a question asked on Twitter about what makes a good educational video: Question for online educators – what’s the latest science on whether the educator’s face on teaching videos they make is associated with a) learning and b) satisfaction?
