Community, Learning, Education, AI, Writing, Student, Teacher, Lecturer, Academic, Skills, Perspectives Shen Liu & Naomi Gouweleeuw No No Student & Teacher Conversation | What happens to learning when AI is everywhere at university? 3 3 Student & Teacher Conversation | What happens to learning when AI is everywhere at university? full 90c37d64-6792-4c2d-991c-5e6b38d69178 https://share.transistor.fm/s/64f42a73 In this episode, Matt Hrusc (LifeVersity) hosts teacher Mariel Jurriens (Rotterdam School of Management) and student Yorrick Bronsgeest (who studies at Erasmus School of Social and Bahavioural Sciences and Erasmus School of Philosophy), who have a lively discussion about the use of GenAI within the university environment. Both equipped with strong opinions and a healthy dose of humour, Yorrick and Mariel use memes and philosophy references to tackle a topic they don't naturally agree on. 

 

Some of the questions that come up are: How will AI change students' writing, and is that change negative? And, what becomes of learning when AI is omnipresent in the university environment? 

 

Both guests are passionate readers and writers, but they have different stances on AI. Where one is open to exploring its possibilities and enjoying its benefits, the other is more sceptical.

Together they examine how generative AI has impacted writing. They dive into the necessity of AI literacy, the evolving role of critical thinking, and the practical ways AI can streamline academic life. Looking toward the horizon, Matt and Chris discuss the future of creativity: If AI is trained solely on the past, can it ever truly innovate in music and writing?

They discuss how the student experience is evolving in the age of generative AI. Having begun her academic journey before these tools were mainstream, Gwen offers a unique "before and after" perspective on how AI has reshaped her research and writing. Together, they explore the challenge of maintaining a human voice when an algorithm can do the heavy lifting, practical techniques for preserving authorship, and how students can ethically leverage AI to support their studies and their future careers.
