symposium
February 23 (Jin·Zhu) 14:00~16:00
A look at the learning continuum
– Seeking resistance and irreplaceability to generative AI –
Capacity Face-to-face: 230 people (member school priority capacity: 140 people)
Online: 1000 people (member school priority capacity: 600 people)
In 1995, when the paper by Barr and Tagg that pointed out the paradigm shift from teaching to learning was published, the University Consortium Kyoto conducted the first FD based on the University of Tokyo Press’s “Techniques of Knowledge.” A forum was held. Approximately 30 years have passed since then, and with the rise of generative AI, there is a need to reconsider the nature of learning spaces. Focusing on and generating several continuums in the learning community, such as junior college and four-year university, primary and secondary education to higher education, liberal arts education and professional education, undergraduate and graduate school, university and community, etc. While incorporating AI resistance from the perspective of coexistence with system AI, we will approach the image of the person responsible for the learning space that cannot be replaced by AI.
