RE: AI & Critical Thinking

The QSLA Brisbane Subcommittee invites you to attend an online professional development session presented by Associate Professor Jason Lodge, University of Queensland.

Jason will discuss the emergent uses and concerns of generative AI and learning. In his work, Jason advocates for a holistic approach to learning in the AI age by emphasising the need for self-regulated learning and co-regulation to steer productive human-AI educational interactions.

Join us for discussion about where AI could be used to assist in research and information literacy and where our students, as thinkers, still need to and should do the heavy lifting. Teacher Librarians play a significant role in designing learning, and leading pedagogy in their schools, therefore this is an important opportunity to explore the implications of AI on the role of critical thinking cognitions.

This PD addresses the following AITSL standards:

  • 1. Know students and how they learn.

  • 3. Plan for and implement effective teaching and learning.

  • 4. Create and maintain supportive and safe learning environments.

  • 6. Engage in professional learning.

  • When: Tuesday 23 April
    Presentation 4.00pm – 5.00pm
