About this event

Artificial intelligence in Education continues to be an area of great excitement and disappointment.
It is argued that AI will have some of its most significant impact in education, teaching and learning. Development and research in this area are looking at innovations in personalisation, retention, online learning and self-regulation, just to name a few areas of intense investigation.

To progress this work, across schools, higher education and into lifelong learning, educators, researchers and industry need to combine efforts to create meaningful and empirically based tools focused on real education problems and practices.

However, there are a number of difficulties in taking advantage of AI in teaching and learning, such as collecting quality data, lack of effective technical tools, systemic challenges for integration and severe problems in effective interpretation and use of AI results.

The result of these issues, among others, is a lack of direct connections between AI and real-life educational contexts. In this panel, we will explore some of the current highs and lows of AI in Education, some of the technologies (e.g. "teachnology", robots, speech interaction, VR/AR), enabling and constraining aspects of the field and how Australia might progress in this area, into the future.

In this discussion, our panel will address several topics to understand how analytics, data and AI can transform the very way we learn:  
  • What needs to be reformed in the current system to be prepared to be 'future-ready'? 
  • Current applications Adaptive Learning 
  • The future of AI and Big Data in Education 
  • Ethics and Duty of Care around data for learners
