Association for Learning Tech<p>Piers - we need to be clear on what we mean by AI, and what students can and can't use. Fear should not dictate policy.

Kerry Pinny<p>It is very easy, if you do not have access or health needs, to take the world for granted. To forget about those for whom navigating daily life raises constant challenges. Humbling to hear directly from our panel on their lived experiences. Fantastic discussion 👏 <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ALTC24" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ALTC24</span></a></p>
