The 15^th Higher Education International Conference 

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND PEDAGOGICAL TRANSFORMATION:

IMPLICATIONS FOR HIGHER EDUCATION QUALITY ASSURANCE

Since 2009, the Macao Polytechnic University (MPU) has been hosting a series of international conferences centred on different aspects of higher education. Topics covered include the development of a modern university system, advancements in teaching and learning, quality assurance in higher education, and innovation in education during and after the pandemic. This year, MPU is collaborating with the Asia-Pacific Quality Network (APQN) once again to organise this conference in December 2023.

The fast development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) becomes a most important issue facing education. It is bringing revolution to various aspects of teaching, learning and outcome assessment. Higher education institutions have to transform rapidly to adapt a new era of AI, as well as understand the challenges, opportunities and threats when applying AI technologies to education.

The theme of this year’s conference is “Artificial Intelligence and Pedagogical Transformation: Implications for Higher Education Quality Assurance”. The conference seeks to bring together researchers and practitioners from both AI and Teaching and Learning Quality Assurance (QA) to explore the latest developments, challenges, and opportunities in this area.
