Invitation to EdTech Month Summit: Unleashing Human Potential | Powered by Technology
The rapid inroads of ChatGPT into our everyday lives has triggered intense debates on the role of AI in education and the existential risks to mankind. Join this EdTech Month Summit online or offline on 13 Oct to look into:
- the impact of AI on the future of work and learning
- the role of technology in workforce reskilling and developing essential 21st century skills
- how we might harness technology to connect higher education and the world of work
The Summit will kick off with a thought provoking dialogue between Prof George Siemens (a thought leader in the intersection of human and artificial intelligence) and Ben Nelson (founder of the most innovative university in the world). Participants will learn from educators and L&D practitioners on the transformative power of technology in higher education and workforce development with cases from Stanford University, Korea Institute of Technology Research, LinkedIn and the HiVE at PolyU (an XR hybrid classroom).
