As with all new EdTech, we need to consider two things: its impact in the classroom, and its impact on students’ brains - for better, and for worse…
As this week’s guest on EdTech Unwrapped warns, digital tools are able to create a sense of ‘cognitive offload’ which switches off students’ critical thought processes.
Dare Pitan is the Digital Education Lead at the University of Birmingham Dubai, and this week he takes us through how students and educators are shaping a strategy which enhances students’ engagement, rather than eroding it.
This episode covers
- Overcoming resistance and fostering acceptance of digital technology among educators
- The importance of demonstrating both the usefulness and ease of use for technology adoption
- The impact of AI and digital tools on time management, assessment, critical thinking, and academic integrity in universities
- The value of student voice and feedback in shaping the integration and responsible use of technology
- Collaborative initiatives and ongoing projects that promote AI integration
