The OEB Conference<\/a>, slated for November 22-24 in Berlin, is set to culminate with a thought-provoking plenary session on Friday, November 24, which promises to delve deep into the transformative impact of emerging technologies, particularly generative AI, on the educational landscape.<\/strong>

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leading international experts, including\u00a0Brent Anders<\/strong>, Director of Institutional Research and Analysis at the Center for Teaching and Learning, Armenia;\u00a0Margaret Korosec<\/strong>, Dean of Online and Digital Education at the University of Leeds, UK;\u00a0Sian Bayne<\/strong>, Professor of Digital Education at the Edinburgh Futures Institute, UK; and moderated by\u00a0Gilly Salmon<\/strong>, CEO of Education Alchemists, will spearhead this unmissable session for all stakeholders in the field of education.

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In an era marked by rapid technological advancements, with conversational and generative AI at the forefront, the realm of education and student assessment stands on the cusp of a profound transformation. This wave of developments challenges the conventional educational paradigm, redirecting the focus from educators to learners. The pivotal question looms large: are these changes not only inevitable but also an opportunity to revolutionise the very design of teaching and learning itself?

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The plenary invites all attendees to participate in a stimulating discourse on the far-reaching impact of emerging technology on the education landscape. As society approaches a future where machines increasingly assume tasks previously performed by humans, a fundamental inquiry arises: does traditional learning still hold sway and promise in this brave new world? Furthermore, the plenary aims to probe the critical question of the role of human learning in a world where automated machines encroach on fields once solely inhabited by humans.

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Guiding the conference through this profound exploration is Gilly Salmon, the session’s moderator, who will challenge attendees to identify the unique attributes that distinguish human beings from machines and to chart a course towards a “reimagined future for education.”

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The highly anticipated\u00a0“Big Reset”<\/strong>\u00a0plenary is scheduled for Friday, November 24th, commencing at 9:30 a.m.
