Interrogating classroom safety and deep fake technology

Deep fakes and dark patterns undermine trust and academic integrity, requiring clearer guardrails, increased discourse, and collaborative critical thinking in education systems.

In this thought-provoking event, Dr Janine Arantes of Victoria University will take you through the complex and evolving digital landscape shaping today's educational systems.

With deep fakes and dark patterns becoming increasingly common, this session explores the risks they pose to trust, academic integrity, and privacy in education.

Deep fakes and AI-generated deceptive media challenge our ability to differentiate authentic content from false information. This is creating new ethical dilemmas for both educators and students.

Dark patterns are deceptive design techniques to manipulate users' online decisions, and impact privacy and the ethical use of technology.

An expert in the responsible use of emergent technologies in educational systems, Dr Arantes will offer insights into these issues and discuss the impact they are already having on teaching and learning environments.

This event is designed for educators, academic leaders, policymakers, students, and anyone interested in the intersection of technology and education.

Participants will gain a deeper understanding of how these digital risks are influencing educational practices. You will likely leave with more questions than answers, aiming to foster ongoing critical thinking in this space.
