#ascilite2025 #aiethics Sitting through a few of the gen AI sessions, the impression I am getting from the work that has been presented so far is that it is ok and ethically ‘acceptable’ to ‘upload’ resources to a platform. #ascilite25

#ascilite2024 challenge for implementing heutagogy, CHANGE! Going back to 2001, thinking about assessment and suggesting alternatives would have been a huge challenge and still is. Finding staff to work with using a new framework was also problematic, still is. Changing ingrained culture is though.

I found the decor in the different rooms a bit ‘weird’ (non-standard at a uni) to begin with but it is slowly growing on me. Gives a homely vib. Check out Room 153 (and the posters while at it). 153 reminds me of Red Velvet cake #ascilite2024
