Track 1 (Planning) teaching with AI

AI is increasingly becoming a valuable resource for teaching staff in higher education when it comes to the planning of teaching and the creation of more personalized, adaptive, and effective learning experiences for students.

In this track, we aim to collect innovative practices, experiences, and insights related to the use of generative AI for teaching and course planning in higher education.

Track 2: AI in the students' lifeworld

Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming the world around us, and education is no exception. AI-powered tools and technologies are already being used in a variety of ways to enhance student learning, from providing personalized feedback to creating immersive learning experiences.

This track aims to explore how AI technologies shape and enhance the educational experiences of students. In particular, we want to examine how AI is being used to support students in their everyday lives, both inside and outside the classroom. Topics will include AI-powered tutoring systems, adaptive learning platforms, and AI-based tools for personalized learning.

Track 3: AI and Data Literacy

In an era dominated by (generative) artificial intelligence, the ability to harness its power has become an essential skill for both students and teachers. Making sense of AI also requires a positive attitude towards the value of data, the backbone of AI systems, and a willingness to work with them.

In this conference track we want to explore what skills students need to be successful in their future careers, and what framework conditions a university needs to provide. We would also like to discuss the extent to which data literacy in general is a prerequisite for both students and teachers to work effectively with AI.
