#lthechat A6 How do we know what GenAI actually costs? (Using the broadest possible definition of cost to range from environmental to labour exploitation)
#lthechat A4 Feels like we are all in the same boat - wondering where (and how) this tech can take us. Excellent source for co-creation projects to figure this out?
#lthechat A5 We could adopt assessment policies and strategies which we could clearly explain to students and which they would experience as compassionate, e.g. not penalising the occasional failure which we do now; having an assessment scale which everyone understands & shares.
#LTHEchat A2 If many of our assessment practices were updated to become more ‘sensible’ and ‘reasonable’ then students would feel they are being treated with compassion.
#LTHEchat A5 If I was still teaching I would definitely include podcasts because the technology is now so much easier and flexible. Short podcasts on key concepts and common misunderstandings would be a good starting point.
#lthechat A2 Just wondering where trust enters the equation. Compassion must be recognised as genuine for a full response. What is we do not trust the person who seems to be behaving compassionately?
#LTHEchat#AdvanceHE_chat A5 The answer to this question depends on how the management are implementing (or even permitting use of) the technology that staff could use to improve their working life. Tech can work both ways!
