Generative AI and Education: Digital Pedagogies, Teaching Innovation and Learning Design

"This volume addresses the gap in knowledge around generative AI and its applications in education. It draws on the recent history of technological innovation and digital pedagogies, locating generative AI in the contemporary discourse around education futures. It argues that a new hybrid model of education is emerging, requiring educational institutions to embed generative AI into course and programme design, delivery and assessment. It also proposes a shift from a focus on learning as output to learning as a process, and explores what that shift might look like. Grounded in educational theory, it offers actionable pedagogy-informed guidance on how to position AI as a collaborator in the construction of learning in a manner that is congruent with the values and aims of education. It offers advice based on evidence-based digital pedagogy, including frameworks for effective teaching and learning with generative AI, that enable educators and designers to put these ideas into practice."

The Invisible Cost of Generative AI in Education

"While AI promises increased efficiency and personalization, it will almost certainly erode crucial cognitive skills if we are not very careful. To give a few examples, here are six abilities or skills we risk obsoleting or at least diminishing if we rush to embrace generative AI in education:"

How Teaming Supercharges Collaboration

"Teaming is both a philosophy and a practice that reflects the realities of the 21st century. It can be applied in different contexts among individuals, groups and organisations. Unlike the agile approach, teaming is not limited to a specific project management methodology. It can be used in both traditional and non-traditional workplaces. 


Teaming allows people and organisations to collaborate in order to learn. It transforms the ways they operate, solve problems and experience the state of flow without having to build traditional teams or offer incentives."

How will the rise of AI in the workplace impact liberal arts education?

"The emergence of AI will provide “a real renaissance for the humanities,” Reed said. But higher ed institutions, including liberal arts colleges, are often not great at explaining how critical thinking skills that students learn can be applied to technology like AI, Reed said. "

Personalized AI Tutoring as a Social Activity: Paradox or Possibility?

"utoring systems based on generative AI (GenAI) now make large-scale personalized tutoring not only possible but also accessible to all. However, the important social aspects of learning will be missing if all students study independently. Does AI offer the possibility of combining the effectiveness of tutoring with the beneficial social aspects of learning? I believe the answer is yes: the chasm between these approaches can be bridged through the thoughtful use of GenAI tutors in both classroom and online settings. The key lies in intentionally designing GenAI tutors and structuring learning activities to take advantage of social interaction with peers."
