Serving as an invaluable resource for educators and students across the institution and further afield.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With AI already having a notable impact on education, this project will provide insight into students\u2019 use of AI, assisting in future learning design.&nbsp;Additionally, since the book is created under an open license, it will (with the contributor\u2019s consent) provide a detailed resource as open data for related scholarly activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This project is student-led and so it will be edited by both student ambassadors, Amani Ahsan and Olivia Davies, with support from staff in the School of Education, Digital Education Services, the Library, ODPL, Curriculum Redefined, and the Knowledge Equity Network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When we were asked by the project team what our motivation was to join the project and how our experience has been so far, we said the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cI wanted to join this project as I saw it as a way to gain more experience in working in the digital education sector to advance my professional development, which it has; however, the project has also enhanced my personal development of developing my creative outlets and advancing my confidence in public speaking. This project has definitely made me want to explore the route of working with new innovational learning resources and it also learn more about how I can use AI in my own learning whether that\u2019s at university or trying to learn a new skill in my own time!\u201d &#8211; Amani Ahsan, student editor<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cAI is such an important issue in all fields right now, but especially in education. I wanted to join this project to learn more about how it\u2019s currently being used by students and educators in higher education and how it can help supplement students\u2019 learning. This project has been a great experience for me and has allowed me to expand my professional skillset. It has also given me insight into using AI for my own benefit in my own life.\u201d &#8211; Olivia Davies, student editor<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>The project was launched during Open Education Week, and thanks to Open Education Global.
