It was nothing short of a privilege to be part of Cambridge University's first Generative AI in Education Conference last week at the Hilton Hotel, Cambridge organised by Digital Education Futures Initiative (DEFI), CambridgeAt the conference, I was presenting about the ongoing 'ped-AI-gogy' research project I am working on collaboratively with Samuel Clarke, Sam Lovatt, Laura Chisnall and Huiwen Wang. We are working on extending Venkatesh and Davies (2000) Technology Acceptance Model 2 to form 'Ped-AI-gogy Informed Model' (PIM) - the theoretical foundation of how GenAI tools become integrated into a teacher’s existing pedagogy. In our work, we put PIM forward through the post-humanist lens where GenAI is considered to be a modern, more complex incarnation of an inanimate object in object-centred pedagogy theory. We question the need to build new pedagogical approaches that foster new knowledge systems and non-anthropocentric ways of being with generative AI. As I am now continuing to work on our project and reflect on what has been heard and discussed throughout the two-day conference, the next steps for me personally are to get through this relatively modest pile of literature as soon as I can...Thank you to Rupert Wegerif, Wayne Holmes and Mairéad Pratschke, PhD for the intellectual input that shall continue to inform my further thinking on the matter.
