What to expect
Session 1A. Introduction to AI and Its Basics: What is AI?
Artificial Intelligence (AI) refers to the simulation of human thinking, capability, and behaviour in machines. These tasks include recognising speech and images, solving problems, learning from experience, and making decisions. AI can range from simple systems that automate repetitive tasks to advanced applications like natural language processing and image recognition. This overview will introduce the foundational concepts of AI, including machine learning, where systems improve their performance by learning from data, and data science, which provides the analytical methods and tools needed to extract knowledge and insights from data. AI is rapidly transforming industries and our daily lives, and in this session, we will explore the basics of AI, how it works, and its potential applications in the modern world.
B. Ethical AI Practices in Education: Understanding Ethical and Privacy Implications
As AI becomes more integrated into education, it’s crucial to address the ethical challenges and privacy concerns it raises. Ethical AI practices ensure that technology is used responsibly, protecting students’ privacy while promoting fairness and transparency. AI systems in education often process sensitive data, which can introduce risks such as data misuse or biased decision-making. Without careful attention, these systems can inadvertently reinforce inequalities or violate privacy rights. This session will explore the ethical implications of AI in education, offering guidelines for adopting AI tools while respecting student privacy and fostering a fair learning environment. We will also discuss how educators can balance innovation with responsibility in today’s AI-driven world.
Session 2
AI in Every Day Learning
As AI becomes more integrated into our daily lives, it is important for adults to learn how to help children understand and navigate AI technologies responsibly. This session will go beyond just teaching students how to use AI, but also to critically analyse AI-generated contentfrom an ethical standpoint. This aligns with digital literacy, where students learn how to ask critical questions and discuss ethical questions, including AI’s implications in their lives. We will take a practical approach to guide you when using AI to enrich your students’ learning experience and outcomes. We will also share a framework for critical pedagogy, which is essential to address complexities of the digital age.
Session 3
Confused or Convinced? Unmasking AI-Enabled Deepfakes and Misinformation
In the past couple of years, AI technology has started to cross a critical threshold with increasing capability to make people look and sound like other people. A “deepfake” is a fabricated yet realistic digital media, including video, image, and audio content. Not only has this technology created confusion, suspicion, and the spread of misinformation, deepfakes also pose a threat to security and privacy. With the growing ability and ease to convincingly impersonate anyone, cybercriminals can potentially orchestrate phishing scams or identity theft operations through the use of this fast-emerging technology. Several practical approaches for this session:
- We are going to talk about video and audio deepfakes. What is the technology behind them and why is it so important to understand the neutral nature of deepfake technology? (Its impact depends on how it is used, and there are both good and bad examples.)
- We will analyse several deepfakes and highlight key identification markers (e.g., unnaturally smooth skin, strange eye movements).
- We will discuss why these markers do not work in all cases.
- We will share some watch-outs and tips on how to better identify deepfakes and countering misinformation to help you and your family.
Session 4
Crafting Intelligent Prompts: How to Think and Talk Smart with GenAI Chatbots
In the ever-evolving world of Generative AI, the way we interact with chatbots is crucial—especially in educational settings. While prompt engineering techniques continue to change with each new model, the fundamental skill lies in understanding the limitations of these AI tools through thoughtful back-and-forth dialogue. In "Crafting Intelligent Prompts: How to Think and Talk Smart with GenAI Chatbots," our guest expert will delve into strategies for identifying and addressing the weak points of AI models to maximize their utility. This session will provide educators with practical insights and hands-on activities to effectively engage with AI chatbots, enabling them to enhance their teaching methods and better prepare students for a future intertwined with AI technology
