Lucy’s interests in pedagogy have expanded over the last couple of years to draw AI into her work on learning design. Using AI in the classroom, in an ethical and responsible way, with learners with diverse needs and backgrounds, can level the playing field and support learners in doing things and thinking in ways that might not otherwise be available to them. For learning design to be thoughtful and effective, digital technologies - including AI - must serve a purpose and earn its pedagogic place in the classroom. We need to know what students will get from it, and we must make sure the students know that too. Lucy’s drivers are creativity and curiosity, and they combine into a pedagogy of wonder. But that goes for us too: AI is new, for all of us, so we need to have the courage to not be the expert, to play, to try things out and see what works and have the confidence to co-learn with the students. These technologies aren’t going away so we might as well take the plunge - ethically, pedagogically, mindfully - and see what we can do!The resources we mentionedJohn Fowles biography: https://www.fowlesbooks.com/ Gill-Simmen, L.
