In this follow up episode with guest speaker Dr Olatunde Durowoju, we discuss how AI tools can be designed to ensure equal access and engagement from students while avoiding bias and disparities. We explore steps institutions can take to facilitate professional development of staff to create an inclusive learning environment that respects differences in perspectives while promoting equity.
