The session focuses on the design\, use and local governance of hyper-contextual AIED services\, and the potential issues and benefits that arise from their use across further education institutions\, including within FE libraries\, learning resource centres and associated academic support services. AI safety layers and chatbot management dashboards represent two means by which education institutions can have more local governance of these services\, particularly where AI tools interact with students seeking information\, guidance and access to institutional resources. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nDisclaimer: As part of our mission to connect the knowledge community and encourage the exchange of ideas\, UKSG hosts discussions on a wide range of topics affecting scholarly communication. The views and opinions expressed by speakers in this session are their own and do not necessarily represent the official position of UKSG.  \n\n\n\n\n\nREGISTER HERE\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers \n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Aftab Hussain \n\n\n\nDirector | Second Mesh Limited \n\n\n\n\nDr. Aftab Hussain has 30 years’ experience of managing learning technology within the education sector.

I never experienced any technical difficulties. Due to the austerity measures brought by the recent worldwide events the training budget in my institution was frozen\, so the fact that UKSG webinars are free is really a boon too! \nAnonymous\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe UKSG webinar was fantastic – well-organized\, timely\, accessible\, and with an array of presenters that had insight into the topic \nAnonymous\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGreat to squeeze in so much useful knowledge and information without having to go out to a conference. I could enjoy taking it in with a sandwich at my desk! I felt very empowered afterwards. \nEmma Thompson\, Glasgow Caledonian University\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNB: UKSG reserves the right to alter or vary the programme due to events or circumstances beyond its reasonable control without being obliged to refund monies. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nContact \n\n\n\nThis is a free webinar – Please note that advance registration is required. \n\n\n\nPlease take a look at our code of conduct \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCancellations \n\n\n\nIf you have already registered and are subsequently unable to attend\, please do not cancel your registration – only active registrations will receive the recording in a follow-up e-mail. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nShare this Event\n\n\n\nPlease help us by letting your colleagues and friends know about our event.
