Topic: Ask4Summary and Authorship Forensic Date and Time: 9:00 PM to 10:00 PM in GMT+8, December 18, 2024 Abstract While the generative AI is popular with the public, the dataset used for training the generative AI is too broad to be helpful for teaching and learning. For example, a teacher believes concept #A is more important than concept #B and has supplied all course materials and supplemental readings to students reflective of this concept weighting. If their students then use a generative AI tool trained with different dataset, which emphasizes concept #B, students might learn different materials and could even fail subsequent course exams.This talk will cover two of my Natural Language Processing (NLP) research. Ask4Summary (https://ask4summary.vipresearch.ca/) has a system periodically running backend services to process course’s learning materials and answers user questions by identifying relevant content and generating summaries only...

Topic: Beyond the Hypes of GenAI in Education to Real-world Contributions Date and Time: 9:00 PM to 10:00 PM in GMT+8, November 14th, 2024 Abstract The shiny allure of recent AI developments has been making headlines in recent years with the popularisation of large language models. Yet, the full potential of AI in educational research and practice remains largely untapped. This talk will navigate the confluence of Learning Sciences and AI, delving into three distinct conceptualizations of AI in educational research and practice. By drawing upon robust research evidence, I will unpack the benefits and limitations of each conceptualisation, painting a nuanced picture of how AI can be harnessed, grounded in our deep understanding of human learning processes and human values. The talk will conclude that against many tech leaders arguments, genAI solutions on their own are unlikely to revolutionise or...

The transformative influence of this intelligent era has substantially modified work paradigms and the allocation of work roles, thereby generating novel demands for human resources within society. This shift in demand has initiated a reassessment of educational content, the development of innovative learning methodologies, and an adaptive realignment of educational philosophies, culminating in a comprehensive revolution in teaching and learning practices. On-Demand Learning Strategy is emerging as a potential to achieve such revolution.
