Penka Peeva: Learning by doing: education and practical training at Assen Zl...CUBCCE Conference
Prof. Assen Zlatarov University-Burgas is the biggest public university in South-East Bulgaria, combining bachelor and master programs in technical, natural, social, economic, humanitarian and healthcare fields. While the quality of the learning process is highly evaluated and recognized on the national level, the academic community is aware of the necessity for improving constantly the link between the university theoretical education and the practical training. In this connection, the University has developed best practices in creating opportunities for the development of students’ practical skills. A new approach in Bulgaria has been introduced – the Dual education. This type of education was defined and confirmed by the Bulgarian legislation and the National strategy for professional education and training 2015-2020. The University community is ready to contribute to the introduction and the development of the dual education system and approved good practices by presenting a program for closer cooperation between academia and the business.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
