Harnessing Emerging Technology in Higher Education: What is Worth Learning?


The rapid emergence of disruptive technologies in higher education has led to critical questions for educators: What is worth learning? and how can we enable students to learn it effectively? As we confront the ever-changing landscape of higher education, it is imperative that we continue to reassess our priorities and seek out innovative ways to foster meaningful learning experiences. This conference will delve into the challenges and opportunities presented by emergent technologies such as AI and data analytics, and to explore strategies for informing teaching practice and empowering learners to become future-ready.
