Virtual reality in tourism education: A case studyMehrasa Alizadeh
This study explored the use of virtual reality (VR) for tourism education by having students design and lead VR tours of three locations in Kyoto, Japan. 22 undergraduate students participated and completed pre/post questionnaires. Results showed high levels of spatial presence and attention/satisfaction. Students felt the VR tours helped communicate in English and learn about locations more clearly than PowerPoints. However, some reported dizziness or eye strain. Overall, the study demonstrated VR's power for hands-on learning experiences while also highlighting the importance of task design to avoid physical issues. Insights will be published in an upcoming Springer book on technology-enhanced language learning in Asia.

The 4th industrial revolution is changing the learning landscape by requiring new skills from learners and leadership from educators to create inclusive lifelong learning opportunities. Effective leadership requires interpersonal skills to build trust and participation in a changing digital environment. Leaders must empower others through delegation and identify emerging technologies while maintaining a sustainable organizational culture and values during this period of digital transformation.
The document provides an overview of a presentation given by Dr. Ebba Ossiannilsson on March 8th, 2016 about opening up education through open educational resources (OERs), MOOCs, and online/e-learning. It discusses key concepts like open educational cultures, quality in OERs, the Paris Declaration on OERs, and the development and characteristics of MOOCs.

ICDE OER Advocacy Committee at OEW24 EDENDLE 7March 2024Ebba Ossiannilsson
GenAI can help improve teaching and learning by providing personalized feedback and recommendations to students based on their progress, strengths and weaknesses. It can analyze large amounts of open educational resources and course materials to help educators develop customized lesson plans and learning paths for different students. By automating certain administrative and repetitive tasks, GenAI also allows teachers to focus more on one-on-one support and guidance for students.
The ICDE OER Advocacy Committee is hosting an event to promote open educational resources on a global scale. Attendees will learn about the committee's role in advocating for OER implementation and how OER aligns with UNESCO's goals of inclusive, equitable education. The agenda includes presentations from the committee chair and ambassadors on global OER initiatives, innovative working groups, and the role of OER in achieving quality education for all as outlined in the UNESCO 2030 Agenda. Participants will have the opportunity to engage in a panel discussion and online Padlet forum on transforming education through open resources and removing boundaries to learning.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter 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.

It is one thing to get them
into school, it’s another to
provide quality education.
Quality education requires
quality teachers and the
world has a shortage of
quality teachers.
Number four among the United
Nation’s Sustainable Development
Goals is providing every child in the
world with quality education by 2030.
There are currently about 260 million
children out of school. According to
new statistics from UNESCO,
“countries must recruit 68.8 million
teachers” over the next 14 years in
order to provide “every child with
primary and secondary education.”
