The OU / Gothenburg seminar series is now in its eighth year. We continue to explore through an international lens issues and interests that the International Higher Education Community share. Few of you will be surprised that Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been a recent focus.  

The seminars typically take a distinct format – a shared interest is viewed from one and then another perspective. In our most recent session OU explored 'The responsible use  of AI', by presenting  two frameworks: the 'OU Critical AI Literacy framework' developed collaboratively by Dr Mirjam Hauck and the 'Responsible by Design' framework developed from Learning Design by Eleanor Moore;  

Our Gothenburg colleagues approached the issue from a slightly different perceptive, focusing on 'Empowering University Instructors with Generative AI: Building Personalized Pedagogical Assistants. Instead of focusing on students’ AI use, Dr. Charlotte Arkenback examined how generative AI can assist instructors in real-time supervision and course planning, observation, and tripartite meetings in practicum courses.  

There are few better ways to spend a spare 45 minutes: why not have a listen the presentations and the discussion that followed here: https://youtu.be/icH8qvpele4
