1
The University of Sydney is the oldest institution of its kind in Australia.
2
But it's facing a very modern day challenge, artificial intelligence.
3
Some of our people are the people who design and develop these systems.
4
They also understand their strengths and their weaknesses.
5
We're insisting that we won't sign a deal until we see some AI protections in there.
6
When we strike we're sure to win.
7
Students say they've already seen an influx of AI in teaching and assessments.
8
I've had students reporting recently that they've had, I think, almost whole philosophy courses that are completely AI generated in material.
9
And when you think of philosophy, I definitely don't think of being taught AI, who's famous for not really being great for critical thinking.
10
The university says it's developed strong safeguards to ensure AI adoption is undertaken as safely and ethically as possible.
11
Universities aren't alone in grappling with how to work with and manage AI.
12
The education sector as a whole is trying to address the technology in real time.
13
This week the New South Wales government brought in changes to
14
limit the number of take-home assessments students are allowed to do for their final year exams, which they say aims to protect the integrity of learning.
15
Leslie Lobel is a professor in AI and education.
16
She says the state government's move is a step in the right direction.
17
But what's more important is the impact of AI on students' fundamental cognitive processes, the infrastructure for learning.
18
The things we are teaching students,
19
knowledge and critical thinking, and self-regulation to recognise the power of learning.
20
Those three ingredients are more important than ever before.
21
And no matter where AI goes, that's what's going to count.
22
She says there are many benefits to AI in the classroom and beyond, but human oversight of how it's used is critical.
23
She says evidence is mounting about its effect on students.
24
You keep using it more and more and more.
25
So it has its own inbuilt dependency and weakens our cognitive structures.
26
Irrevocably shaking the very foundation for a lifelong journey of learning.

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?
שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
