Wednesday 20 November (PM)

Hosted by AI Education Focussed Community of Practice

This session will look to move beyond the AI hype and see AI as a tool to be incorporated in teaching and learning. We will explore with students what is keeping them up at night. Our guest speaker will provoke us to consider why the hype needs to dissipate in favour of an AI-enhanced and enabled world. We will also hear from a select group of short presentations about how AI is being used to 'cut through the noise'.

Monday 25 November (PM)

Hosted by PVC Student Success

Are you passionate about creating community and a sense of belonging for our students? 

UNSW is currently focused on the question of community and belonging. How we shape and influence this is part of the University’s future thinking. Some initial research suggests that UNSW Students believe five key elements (shown below) impact (improve or impede) their sense of belonging. 

Does any of your work focus on one or more of these areas? If so we would welcome an EOI from you (linked to these themes) to present during our session as part of an engaged discussion and debate around shaping this framework further.
