The Future of Higher Education in an Age of Artificial Intelligence

Colleges, universities and other higher education institutions are displaying a high degree of uncertainty and caution with respect to the adoption and use of AI. Concerns related to security, privacy, and academic misconduct act as cautions, though some are pioneering imaginative and creative uses of AI in teaching, learning, assessment and support services. This book explores the landscape of AI adoption and suggests ways in which AI can be deployed to improve learning and assessment. It also examines ethical and change management implications of AI.

A strong focus on ethical AI, the use of AI for regenerative thinking and a shift to problem and project-based learning are all explored as ways of overcoming faculty concerns.

This future-focused book is recommended for policy makers in government; leadership teams in colleges, polytechnics and universities; and for graduate students seeking to make sense of the fast-moving landscape.
