While discussions about artificial intelligence (AI) have become increasingly commonplace within academia, seldomly are Indigenous perspectives included within these conversations apart from being gestured to as one of the many 鈥渆quity issues鈥� surrounding the use of AI.

Providing a dedicated space for 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 community members to expand their understanding of the intersections of Indigenous knowledge systems and AI, this virtual reading group invites participants to question and consider how AI advancements compliment, challenge, resonate and/or contrast with various Indigenous worldviews, ethics, and epistemologies.

The chosen text for Fall 2024, , is the result of collaborative work between M膩ori, First Nations, Inuit, M茅tis, Pacific Islanders, and Aboriginal Australians, that recognizes and affirms the diversity of Indigenous views and approaches to generative AI. As described by the authors, 鈥渞ather than being a single unified statement this position paper is a collection of heterogeneous texts that range from design guidelines to scholarly essays to artworks to descriptions of technology prototypes to poetry.鈥� (2020) Regardless of the discipline your work is situated within, this series aims to offer meaningful opportunities to engage with the complexities of AI and Indigenous knowledge systems. Through a series of facilitated discussions, participants will delve into the diverse perspectives presented in the position paper, critically examining how Indigenous protocols can inform ethical AI development, challenge existing paradigms, and propose alternative approaches.

Come join us to celebrate Universal Design for Learning (UDL) implementation across Dal through the CLT's UDL Showcase held during Accessibility Week, November 25-29, 2024. 

This event allows us to applaud the work instructors, staff, and faculty have done to make their course designs and teaching more inclusive, accessible, flexible, and empowering for students. It鈥檒l be like a conference roundtable or poster session, but broader in scope and more fun!

In the spirit of flexibility, there are multiple ways to participate.

• synchronously in an online session on Teams (November 26, 1鈥�2:15 p.m.)
• synchronously in person in Killam B400 (November 27, 11 a.m.鈥�1 p.m.)
• asynchronously in a Teams site (November 26-28)

*The in person option has been cancelled.

Would you like to share your work at the Showcase?

Great, this is exciting! You can indicate your interest on the registration form or reach out to Les at lestjohnson@dal.ca.

Wednesday, November 27
2-3 p.m.

Join us for the November meeting of 新加坡六合彩开奖直播鈥檚 Generative A.I. in Teaching and Learning Community of Practice.

This month鈥檚 topic

Technologies are not value neutral nor inert; they change us as much as we change them.  Langdon Winner, one such philosopher, coined the term 鈥渞everse adaptation.鈥�  Here he posited that tools and technologies are created so that they can serve us; however, in many instances, it is we who serve even simple tools such as clocks or houses.  Ivan Illich suggests there has been a watershed moment for Western cultures in which technology has ceased, in general, to improve human life and now rather detracts from it.  He asks if there can be better ways to create and use tools to support human flourishing ("for conviviality").  In this presentation and discussion we will ask the question of whether AI can be a tool for conviviality, and if so, how this may be possible.

新加坡六合彩开奖直播 the GenA.I. CoP

The aim of the GenA.I. in Teaching and Learning Community of Practice is to create a space for cautious, critical, and open discussion and sharing around using (or not using) generative artificial intelligence in the classroom or in teaching and learning work. We welcome presentations or other organized discussions that showcase use in classrooms; discuss ethical use; describe guiding students in its use/non-use; or brainstorm general implications or consequences for any aspect of teaching, learning or being part of the university.

Anyone is welcome to join the GenA.I. CoP, including instructors, graduate students, staff, and faculty. No expertise in generative A.I. is required. Reach out to eLearning@dal.ca with any questions. If not already a member of the CoP, register for the event to receive information on joining the Teams site. You can also search for 鈥淕enA.I. CoP鈥� in Teams to join.

Tuesday, December 10
2鈥�3:30 p.m.
Killam Library, Room B400*

The aim of this hands-on, in-person workshop is to introduce key techniques in qualitative data coding and analysis using NVivo software and/or Excel. Participants will gain essential tools to organize, code, and draw meaningful insights from their qualitative data. During the session, you鈥檒l learn how to prepare your data and explore foundational coding techniques, such as in-vivo and thematic coding, to categorize and understand your data more deeply. Through interactive exercises, participants will identify themes and patterns and create a codebook that enhances clarity and consistency throughout the coding process. Additionally, we鈥檒l briefly discuss reliability coding principles in qualitative research.

Bring your own data, or use provided sample datasets for hands-on practice if you don鈥檛 have data prepared.鈥�

Please bring a laptop computer with you to this workshop.
