GenAI is changing the way we learn, work, teach and assess. There is a lot of talk about how GenAI impacts academic integrity, ethical behaviour, and authentic assessment. You might presume that WIL is all about students learning to strengthen their professional integrity to become responsible, ethical professionals and that assessments are authentic because they assure learning of authentic work-based tasks and performances. In this webinar, we will problematise GenAI in the context of WIL, building on the PEPN webinar in April, which focused on assessment and ChatGPT.
You are invited to explore how GenAI is changing the WIL landscape in this PEPN webinar. Share your responses and engage with adaptations to GenAI in your WIL practices.
We will discuss:
- What is the role of GenAI in WIL? Simulations, mentoring and realistic scenarios are some of the possibilities that may widen personalised WIL experiences.
- What are the opportunities for GenAI in WIL? Discover innovative ways of working in WIL with GenAI – for students, universities and external partners.
- What are some GenAI dilemmas? Share what needs to be considered and managed well with GenAI in a WIL context.
- What are the ways forward for WIL with GenAI? We will debate if GenAI can be a new agent in mentoring, feedback practices, and WIL assessment.
