On the 24th March, we ran our latest AI in FE Community meet-up. This time we started with a lean coffee style discussion which allowed participants to vote on topics they would like to discuss. This was followed by a breakout session around approaches to assessment and AI. Lean Coffee During our Lean Coffee session, […]
Following our initial Student Perceptions of Generative AI report last year, we recognised the need to continue the discussion with students/learners as the technology continues to evolve. Over this past winter, we have run a series of nine in-person student discussion forums with over 200 students across colleges and universities to revisit student/learner perceptions of […]

AI is of course much more than just generative AI, and a full discussion around AI literacy would need to cover more traditional AI uses too, for example predictive models, adaptive learning, image recognition, recommendation engines and many other tools and techniques. Generative AI is the hot topic now though, so the groups discussion focused […]
We are often asked about how we integrate AI into our everyday tasks and how it helps us to work more efficiently. While generative AI serves various purposes, one helpful function we’ve discovered is its assistance in navigating Microsoft Excel, whether that be providing step by step guidance on formulas or describing complex tasks.
