Hands-on Workshop: Fostering Academic Integrity and Ethics in the Al Era: Experiences in an Immersive Gamified Metaverse Hands-on Workshop: Fostering Academic Integrity and Ethics in the Al Era: Experiences in an Immersive Gamified Metaverse
Facilitators:

Ms Winnie WONG (LTTC, EdUHK)
Educational Development Manager,
Centre for Learning, Teaching, and Technology (LTTC),
The Education University of Hong Kong (EdUHK)

Mr Will DING (LTTC, EdUHK)

Abstract:

This workshop aims to equip participants with the essential knowledge and skills to navigate the complexities of academic integrity in the age of artificial intelligence, particularly using generative AI in learning and researching. Through an engaging and interactive gamified metaverse platform, attendees will explore the principles of ethical AI usage, the implications of plagiarism, and the importance of original thought in academic work. Participants will engage in immersive scenarios that simulate real-world ethical dilemmas. They will explore the metaverse with Non-Player Characters (NPCs) and complete guided tasks to foster critical thinking and collaborative problem-solving. Participants will also have opportunities to chat with the generative AI-empowered NPC in the metaverse and receive badges and scores. By the end of the workshop, participants will have a deeper understanding of how to uphold academic integrity and responsibly leverage AI tools, ensuring their contributions to learning are both impactful and ethically sound.

TALES 2 – From Digital Natives to Digital Citizens: Shaping Factors and Digital Literacy Practices cum Award Presentation Ceremony

[Participating Universities: CUHK, CityUHK, EdUHK, LU and PolyU]

Date & Time:

23 January 2025 (Thursday), 11:30 am - 1:00 pm

Venue: 

Online via Zoom

From Digital Natives to Digital Citizens: Shaping Factors and Digital Literacy Practices cum Award Presentation Ceremony From Digital Natives to Digital Citizens: Shaping Factors and Digital Literacy Practices cum Award Presentation Ceremony
Facilitator:

Prof Michelle Mingyue GU
Professor of Sociolinguistics,
Dean of Graduate School,
The Education University of Hong Kong

Abstract:

The internet’s anonymity and unrestricted access bring both risks (e.g., cyberbullying, hacking) and opportunities (e.g., learning, socializing). Digital citizenship (DC) education helps students (a) protect themselves from online risks and (b) use social media’s positive potential effectively. To support this, it is important to understand the ethically, socially, and culturally meaningful literacy practices that promote positive DC.

In this webinar, referring to three of my studies, I first examine how family influence (e.g., parental involvement), individual factors (e.g., internet self-efficacy, internet anxiety), and interpersonal factors (e.g., communication and social media competence) shape DC. Second, I analyze predictors of adolescents’ DC, such as demographic (e.g., gender, computer use), individual (e.g., social networking use, internet skills), and psychological (e.g., internet attitudes) factors, and how DC influences online behavior and learning. Third, I discuss how bilingual students in Hong Kong construct DC through social media, with implications for education in multicultural contexts. Three of my empirical studies on DC will be referred to in the talk.

TALES 5 – Excellence in HE Teaching: Insights from 2023 Teaching Award Recipient (Revitalizing History Education in the Digital Age: Bridging Traditional Practices, Digital Tools, and Interactivity)
Date & Time:

Venue:

Revitalizing History Education in the Digital Age: Bridging Traditional Practices, Digital Tools, and Interactivity Revitalizing History Education in the Digital Age: Bridging Traditional Practices, Digital Tools, and Interactivity
Facilitator:

Professor Lik Hang TSUI
Associate Professor, Department of Chinese and History, City University of Hong Kong

Abstract:

In today’s digital age, history education has the opportunity to evolve by integrating both digital technologies and the enduring benefits of traditional methods. This talk explores how computational tools—such as digital text repositories, annotation tools, and LLM-powered chatbots—can work in tandem with “low-tech” resources such as print books and physical libraries to enrich history learning. By fostering engagement and emphasizing critical reading, reflection, interactivity, and hands-on exploration, this approach not only revitalizes history education but also challenges some students’ perception of history as a dull and indigestible subject, while preserving the rigor and depth that scholarly practices offer.
