SUMMARY:Online Education Dialogue 2024 “Empowering Higher Education with AI” -Session 4
DESCRIPTION:In an era where artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming various aspects of society\, it is crucial for higher education to stay at the forefront of these changes. In 2023\, the dialogue centered around the theme “Navigating the AI-Driven Digital Transformation of Higher Education\,” bringing together 33 speakers from 14 countries for a series of 9 global dialogues. Through the previous events\, we recognized the AI’s vast yet largely untapped potential in empowering and transforming higher education through improving personalized learning\, enabling efficient management\, enhancing research capabilities\, and facilitating international cooperation. Moreover\, AI can assist higher education institutions in fulfilling their social responsibilities and contributing to Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). \n\n\n\nOED 2024 will follow the footprints from previous themes in depth and continue diving into AI-Led Transformation in Higher Education. Our goal is to equip educators and administrators with the knowledge and skills necessary to navigate the digital transformation driven by AI\, ultimately benefiting learners and society as a whole. By exploring this theme\, we aim to contribute to a wider understanding and capacity building of how AI can be effectively integrated into higher education to enhance quality\, promote inclusiveness\, and create impact. The discussions will foster collaboration\, stimulate innovation\, and provide insights to reshape the future of higher education in an AI-driven era. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTime \n\n\n\nDialogue time: September 26\, 2024\, 8:00-9:00 PM (Beijing\, UTC+8) \n\n\n\nSession Overview \n\n\n\nAs AI reshapes modern educational paradigms\, young students and early-career professionals are both participants and architects of this transformation.
