OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Technologies of Agency: Student Mobility in Era of Digital Internationalization
This seminar examines how emerging technologies are reshaping student mobility and internationalization in higher education. As artificial intelligence, blockchain networks, and extended reality technologies advance, they are enabling new forms of virtual exchange, hybrid learning, and credential portability. The concept of “technologies of agency” is introduced to analyze how these digital technologies not only facilitate but also actively shape institutional strategies, student decision-making, and geopolitical dynamics surrounding cross-border education. The seminar advocates for a techno-realist approach that addresses risks and ethical concerns while harnessing the democratizing potential of new technologies.
Organised jointly by the CIE research Group and CGHE.
