Webinar: Supporting reflection through an AI powered reflection bot
What if you could ask all of your learners targeted reflection questions based on their previous input?
This is exactly what Riff, the reflection chatbot by Leticia Britos Cavagnaro from the d.school at Stanford University does. In this webinar, Leticia will show us and demonstrate with us how Riff works and how it differs from other reflection question prompts that you may have used in your portfolio practice.
Come along to this session on 8 December at 11.00 am SYD time if you are interested in the intersection between portfolios and artificial intelligence.
You can win one of four copies of Leticia’s latest book, Experiments in reflection, due at the end of November 2023, sponsored by AAEEBL and ePortfolios Australia.
Invitation to participate in Research Project survey: Mapping ePortfolio Use and Labour in Tertiary Education in Australia and New Zealand
The Association for Authentic, Experiential, and Evidence-Based Learning’s (AAEEBL) Digital Ethics Task Force developed ten principles, one of which advocates for acknowledging and valuing ePortfolio labour. As such, the Task Force aims to better understand and map the field of ePortfolio work within higher education in Australia and New Zealand, after an earlier version of this survey was conducted in the USA and Canada. Similar projects will be conducted internationally to generate a comprehensive view of the field.
The survey is anonymous, and participation is voluntary. The results will inform ePortfolio use and the labour involved.
This research is being led by Associate Professor Christine Slade, University of Queensland.
