New Era: AI for Education

Recognising the transformative impact of artificial intelligence on society and knowledge creation, EdUHK has formulated the Artificial Intelligence and Digital Competency Strategy (the Strategy), a three-year blueprint for sustainable development. The Strategy encompasses talent cultivation, enhancement of AI and digital literacy among staff, and innovation in AI for education, aiming to deliver landmark outcomes distinctive to EdUHK.

Following a learner-centred approach, the overarching aim of the Strategy is to leverage AI as a transformative force to cultivate a future-ready learning ecosystem with the following objectives.

  • To cultivate students as self-regulated, self-directed and lifelong learners who effectively leverage AI to foster their intellectual and personal growth and develop global competency;
  • To promote AI-powered authentic learning experiences for students that foster professional excellence and enhance student employability;
  • To build academic and teaching staff capacity through professional development that enhances AI and digital competency, promotes pedagogical innovation, and supports effective curriculum and assessment design;
  • To drive education innovation and productivity by strategically developing and deploying signature AI tools for both students and academic and teaching staff;
  • To embed ethics and integrity as foundational principles in all AI-augmented academic and professional practices with an emphasis on social responsibility.
