The Australian Centre for Student Equity and Success acknowledges Indigenous peoples across Australia as the Traditional Owners of the lands on which the nation’s campuses are situated. With a history spanning more than 60,000 years as the original educators, Indigenous peoples hold a unique place in our nation. We recognise the importance of their knowledge and culture, and reflect the principles of participation, equity, and cultural respect in our work. We pay our respects to Elders past, present, and future, and consider it an honour to learn from our Indigenous colleagues, partners, and friends.

Professor Jason Lodge, Deputy Associate Dean at the University of Queensland and ACSES Visiting Scholar, offered his insights into the impact that Artificial Intelligence (AI) is expected to have on higher education this week with two public speaking engagements during his visit to the Curtin University campus.

Earlier this week, Jason was part of a panel of experts at a Curtin FBL Research session on how AI affects the future of education and work alongside Professor Patrick Dunlop, Dr Lee-Von Kim, and Associate Professor Nik Thompson.

Jason also presented a session on “Cultivating and assessing human intelligence in the age of AI” where he focused on how AI will affect students’ learning, teaching, and employment outcomes in the future. He highlighted the importance of starting to look for evidence of learning instead of cheating when students use AI, and gave insights into the effective use of AI in higher education assessments and how teachers can integrate AI use into their courses.

We thank Jason for sharing his inputs on the evolving role of AI in education. If you are interested in Jason’s work and research, you can find out more here.
