AI and Higher Education

Research Leaders

How does AI impact higher education and lifelong learning? The WASP-HS Research Network AI and Higher Education supports collaboration between researchers, educators, developers, practitioners, and policymakers on the topic.

The research network offers an open platform for research exchange, public engagement, and practitioner collaboration, designed to co-construct knowledge that is both scientifically rigorous and grounded in real-world contexts.

AI and Higher Education organizes research exchanges via seminars and writing activities.

Vision

The vision is to stimulate public engagement and societal debate on issues regarding the present and the future of learning in an AI-infused society. The research network hosts open lectures and encourages practitioner collaboration through participatory, hands-on workshops.

Mission

The mission of the Research Network AI and Higher Education is to:

• Creating an open and inclusive environment for interdisciplinary discussion and for research exchange
• Encouraging broad participation for public engagement among researchers, practitioners, and stakeholders sharing a commitment to empirically grounded, theoretically informed inquiry into AI and the context of education,
• Cultivating practitioner collaboration to co-construct knowledge that is both scientifically rigorous and grounded in real-world contexts.
• Building a broader research network to identify knowledge gaps.
