KEYNOTE PRESENTATION: Moving Forward with Online Education in the Era of ChatGPT

Log in to save this to your schedule, view media, leave feedback and see who's attending!

Digital tools and techniques abound within higher education. In fact, the flow of new resources seems for many to be accelerating beyond comprehension as demonstrated by the reactions of educators to the rise of generative AI tools such as ChatGPT. This keynote session will frame online/digital education both as a fast-changing interdisciplinary field requiring adaptability and as a lever to enact strategic change within our institutions. Tactics and resources for “moving forward” accordingly will be shared, and dialogue will be invited.
