SUMMARY:[External] Creativity\, Trust\, and Postplagiarism: How GenAI Is Reshaping Educational Practice
DESCRIPTION:Register Here \nGenAI has quickly become everyday infrastructure in education — whether it’s endorsed or not. This webinar examines what’s happening right now\, drawing on the concept of postplagiarism and survey data on how students perceive creativity when using AI tools. \nKey takeaways: \n\nUnderstand how GenAI is already reshaping assessment\, learning design\, and academic norms\nExplore why convenience drives adoption but learner insight drives continued use\nReframe creativity developmentally through a postplagiarism lens\nExamine the gap between perceived creativity and measurable creative outcomes\nBuild a clearer framework for navigating trust in AI as a cognitive artifact\n\nHost: Rahul Kumar\, Assistant Professor\, Department of Educational Studies\, Faculty of Education\, Brock University

SUMMARY:Beyond Surveillance: The Case Against AI Detection and AI Proctoring [external]
DESCRIPTION:Are you an educator seeking a supportive space to critically examine AI surveillance tools? This workshop is for you.   \nIn an era where AI increasingly pervades education\, AI detection and proctoring have sparked significant controversy. These tools\, categorized as academic surveillance software\, algorithmically monitor behaviour and movements. Students are increasingly forced to face them. Together\, we will move beyond surveillance toward a culture of trust and transparency\, shining a light on the black box of surveillance and discussing our findings.   \nIn this two-hour workshop\, we will explore AI detection and proctoring through a 40-minute presentation\, an hour of activities and discussion\, and 20 minutes of group tool evaluation using a rubric.   \nRegister Now!\nThis session will be recorded\, archived\, and made available publicly on BCcampus.ca. By participating in this session\, you acknowledge you are aware your participation will be recorded and the recording will be openly available. \nAbout the Facilitator: Ian Linkletter (he/him) is an emerging technology and open education librarian at the British Columbia Institute of Technology. He works to evaluate emerging technologies through a critical lens and implement open education as a social good. Previously\, he worked for 10 years as a learning technology specialist in the Faculty of Education at the University of British Columbia\, where he supported every online course.  \n\nEdTech Sandbox Series Sessions\n\nSeptember 18\, 2024 — Beyond Surveillance: The Case Against AI Detection and AI Proctoring\, Ian Linkletter\, BCIT\nOctober 16\, 2024 — Learning Design with ChatGPT: Implications for AI Literacy\, Hajime Kataoka\, UVic\nNovember 6\, 2024 — Design Smarter: Harnessing Canva’s AI for Enhanced Educational Outcomes\, Prabhjot (Prab) Bhamra\, University of Toronto\nJanuary 22\, 2025 — Exploratory Learning: Effectively Integrating AI with Hypothesis\, Julia Grav and Emily Schudel\, Camosun College\nFebruary 26\, 2025 — Exploring Animaker for Teaching and Learning\, Maryam Safa Schneider

SUMMARY:Bringing AI Literacy to the Higher Ed Institution [External]
DESCRIPTION:Within the debate over the role of AI in the present and future of learning\, a wide range of valid concerns and enthusiasm can sometimes mask a fundamental truth: AI is dramatically changing teaching and learning and will continue to do so in future years. How should institutions work with their varied stakeholders to ensure they are fully considering the pitfalls and promises of new AI technologies in ways that lead to more effective learning and institutional outcomes? \nJoin Grammarly for Education as we learn about one institution’s attempt to raise the AI literacy of everyone they employ and educate. Dr. Leo Lo\, Dean and Professor of the College of University Libraries and Learning Services\, leads the University of New Mexico’s AI Empowerment Initiative. The initiative aims to enhance AI literacy across the university to ensure responsible and effective use. In this wide-ranging fireside chat\, we will hear how UNM is approaching AI literacy at scale\, encompassing faculty training\, evaluation criteria\, academic integrity guidelines\, and new courses for non-technical students. This webinar is ideal for any decision-maker\, faculty member\, or educator grappling with how to implement a thoughtful AI policy that considers the full spectrum of benefits and challenges. \nREGISTER HERE
