We started this meeting with a discussion about copilot 365, which we are currently piloting. We wanted to use it to create the meeting summary and notes for the session, and have published a separate blog to share how effective this was. Then moving into our standard lean coffee format, using Padlet this time. Discussion […]
I’m starting this blog with an admission: this is my favourite feature so far of Copilot365. For some reason, and even I don’t understand why, I have a real passion for making a page of my notepad last as long as possible and writing minimal notes, in random places on the current page. The current […]
As usual we started the session with Lean Coffee. This time around we focused on a single discussion: How to govern AI use in your institution? Who is using what and should they be? Or do you just hope and pray? The concerns were largely around data security and privacy and staff and students using […]
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’ve now got our standard meeting format in place – Lean Coffee discussion for the first 20 minutes and a focused discussion for the final 25 minutes. For the February Lean coffee we managed to discuss two topics: Approved/approving AI tools within institutions: The discussion focused on the challenges and strategies involved in approving AI […]
We’ve been delivering a lot of sessions recently around taking a whole institution approach to moving into operational Artificial Intelligence (AI) and therefore thought it would be useful to share some thoughts to support those embarking on this journey. Adopting a comprehensive, institution-wide approach to operational AI is vital to ensure that all departments and […]
We had another lively call with around 68 members dropping in. We started with a Lean coffee format – our standard opening session and this kicked off a lively conversation around licensing terms. Microsoft have now removed the 300 license minimum for Copilot 365 and this is allowing some institutions to think about piloting. At […]
