Revisiting the Prompt: Critical AI Literacy for Language Educators: A day of keynote insights, active learning, and shared best practices

We are delighted to be co-organising another hybrid (online and in-person) training day with Lancaster University Confucius Institute. This teacher training day is for teachers of Chinese as Foreign Language, as well as teachers of other languages.

We currently have the following keynote sessions confirmed:

• Professor Mirjam Hauck (OU) ‘AI Literacy for Social Justice and Inclusion: What does it mean for the Learning and Teaching of Languages and Cultures?’
• Dr Kan Qian (OU), Prof Xu Xin (BFSU) and Dr Shi Lijing (LSE) ‘Critical and ethical use of GenAI: exploring Chinese Language Teachers’ Perception and Attitude’
• Dr Neil McLean (LSE) ‘AI literacy as an extension of ‘normal’ language provision’.

There will be lightning talks in the afternoon as well as an interactive session with a focus on prompt crafting for inclusive learning and teaching of languages and cultures. The session will take the shape of a mini Promptathon informed by the OU Framework for Critical AI Literacy Skills development.

Further information will follow regarding the talks, speakers, schedule and registration.

For now, please save the date! 

We look forward to seeing you there.
