In 2024 we organised a successful education conference at the University of Birmingham which focused on Generative AI in HE, and which hosted delegates and speakers from across the sector. The conference which ran over 2 days at our Edgbaston and Dubai campuses and online, was a huge success: it offered lively debate, sharing of good practice, and ultimately gave attendees food for thought with practical ideas and solutions for what was (and still is) an ongoing topic in HE pedagogy.
The Edgbaston conference keynote was Professor Mike Sharples, whose talk was both pragmatic and inspirational, helping us focus on pedagogy and principles which matter most: student learning.
A selection of 9 papers from the conference was included in our subsequent Education in Practice Issue 6.1 (Spring 2025), which includes a paper by Mike Sharples, and a host of other contributors, all highlighting different uses of AI in teaching at Birmingham.
