Dissemination material

The DialogEduShift project was launched to respond to the educational, ethical, and institutional challenges emerging from the rapid adoption of AI conversational systems. Its mission was to ensure that higher education can harness the benefits of AI while safeguarding human-centered learning, transparency, and academic integrity. At its foundation, the project aimed to build both individual competences among educators and systemic readiness within institutions to adapt to the ongoing digital transformation.

Events

The Multiplier Event's objectives reflect the project's overall mission: - Presenting project results to a broad audience of researchers, administrators, and policymakers - Raising awareness of the opportunities and challenges of AI-enabled education, including ethical issues - Fostering collaboration and networking among higher education institutions in implementing AI tools - Collecting feedback to refine project results and adapt them to the specific needs of end users, ensuring sustainability after the project's completion.
