Friday, 29 May 2026, 10 am
As Generative AI enters EMI classrooms, concerns about embedded bias and the need for critical digital and ethical literacy, highlighted by scholars such as Kim et al. (2025, 2026), are gaining momentum.
This event moves the conversation forward by pairing critical awareness with practical strategies for using GenAI to enhance student engagement and learning outcomes. Join us to explore how we can adopt AI thoughtfully, with out overlooking its powerful affordances for teaching and learning.
