Episode 3 – Developing Critical Thinking on AI-Generated Media

In the third episode of “Navigating the Digital World,” titled “Developing Critical Thinking on AI-Generated Media,” we explore the profound implications of truth and the role of critical thinking in an AI-driven era. Academic integrity, honesty, and fairness take centre stage as students learn to discern between genuine work and AI-generated content.

The episode emphasizes the need to assess information from diverse sources, including Gen AI, peer-reviewed literature, colleagues, and teachers. Critical thinking becomes a powerful tool to navigate the digital landscape, encouraging students to slow down, question, and analyse the flood of images and information. As we embark on this shared journey, understanding AI’s potential and maintaining authenticity are paramount for a thriving civil society.
