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
Medical Sciences Education Forum: AI in practice
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a rapidly evolving technology with a large potential impact on education. In particular, generative AI in the form of Large Language Models (LLMs), can rapidly generate high quality text, computer code and graphics in response to prompts. The university has adopted the Russell Group principles (academic.admin.ox.ac.uk/ai-in-teaching-and-assessment) on the use of generative AI in education and the CTL have generated useful resources and guidance (www.ctl.ox.ac.uk/ai-tools-in-teaching ). However, the ramifications of AI for learning and assessment can be overwhelming to process and lack of time is a barrier for academics to work out how to become AI literate themselves and how to support students.
This forum will be an opportunity to share practical experiences of AI in education, and to work out, together, how to become AI literate:
- How do we support students to use AI appropriately? – How do we responsibly use AI ourselves?
