Description

The Centre for Development of Teaching and Learning (CDTL) invites all who are involved with education at NUS to the Higher Education Campus Conference (HECC) 2023, which will take place on 7 December 2023 (Thursday) at the Shaw Foundation Alumni House.

With the pandemic a distant memory for most of us, we are now faced with what some would term as seismic shifts in the higher education landscape. An unmistakable impetus for the change is the development of generative artificial intelligence (AI). Other factors that have impacted us include interdisciplinary teaching and engagement with communities and partners outside the university. Hence, the organising committee thought that ‘Navigating Uncharted Frontiers’ would be appropriate and timely as the theme for this year’s conference.

This year’s HECC will feature a panel discussion on generative AI among the leaders of the teaching and learning centres of Singapore’s autonomous universities. We trust that you will find the conversation beneficial and helpful even as you navigate your way through the impact of generative AI in your classrooms.

The keynote address for this year’s conference will be delivered by Professor Rosemary (Rose) Luckin, from University College London, whose research involves the design and evaluation of educational technology using theories from the learning sciences and techniques from AI. Like last year’s keynote addresses, Professor Luckin will also be delivering her lecture virtually. We are confident that you will be able draw interesting insights from her vast experiences in the use of AI in education.
The highlight of this year’s conference will, of course, be the paper presentations, lightning talks, and poster presentations by our own NUS colleagues. The presentations will highlight their respective teaching and learning practices that they have adopted as they navigate through the challenges brought about by the changes mentioned above. Besides learning from each other’s presentations, it is our hope that you will also benefit from the ‘corridor conversations and discussions’.
