- ItemOpen, Distance, and Digital Education (ODDE): An Equity View(Springer, Singapore, 2023-01-01) Czerniewicz L; Carvalho L; Zawacki-Richter O; Jung IUnderstanding how equity manifests in open, distance, and digital education (ODDE) requires us to grapple with several coexisting trends, including the changing forms of teaching and learning provision, the advent of a post-digital society and education, the datafication of education, inequality in society at large, and digital inequities. Most of these trends are social in nature, yet they shape, and are shaped by, the educational sector. It is at the intersection of these coexisting trends that equity issues in ODDE are raised and become apparent, reinforced by the uneven distribution of technology in society, and with deep roots in economic and social inequities. Current scholarship foregrounds these nested relationships and entanglements, as well as their intersection with power relations and contestations which play out across ODDE at macro, meso, and micro levels.

- ItemThe impact of ChatGPT on teaching and learning in higher education: Challenges, opportunities, and future scope(IGI Global, 2024-04-01) Li M; Khosrow-Pour MDBAThe integration of OpenAI's ChatGPT is reshaping higher education by transforming teaching and learning dynamics. This article delves into ChatGPT's impact, exploring opportunities, challenges, and future potential. ChatGPT's deployment in higher education offers interactive and adaptive classrooms, enabling personalized learning experiences. Educators use ChatGPT to enhance engagement, critical thinking, and tailor content, fostering innovative teaching. However, integrating ChatGPT also introduces challenges, including plagiarism detection concerns due to AI-generated assignments and potential impacts on writing skills and independent thinking. Addressing misinformation risks from AI content requires responsible usage guidelines.

- ItemRecalibrating ‘Heroes and Villains’: Ancient Greek Literature through the Camera Lens(Ergon Verlag, 2023) Bakogianni A; Lindner M; Steffensen NAudiences’ expectations of how a hero should behave are shaped by how they measure up against characters coded as villainous. This chapter examines the interdependence of these two concepts with reference to two screen case studies with direct and indirect connections to the Trojan War as an archetype for all wars. Juxtaposing William Scofield, the accidental hero of the World War One movie 1917 (DreamWorks Pictures, 2019) with the villainous Ajax in Troy: Fall of a City (BBC/Netflix, 2018) allows us to reflect on how radically the labels of hero and villain have been recalibrated in the second decade of the new millennium. What has, however, not changed, is the ongoing role that ancient Greek literature, characters, and themes play in such conversations in our popular culture.

- ItemTelehealth at Home: Co-Designing a Smart Home Telehealth System(IOP Press BV, 2021-04-19) Hunter I; Elers P; Lockhart C; Guesgen H; Whiddett D; Singh A; Maeder AJ; Higa C; van den Berg MEL; Gough CIncreasing life expectancy and rates of chronic conditions place increasing demands on aged care health and support services. One response preferred by older adults and seen as cost effective is aging in place, whereby older people remain in their own homes and avoid aged residential care. For this to take place, it is crucial that older people maintain effective relationships with support networks and that older adults and these networks have adequate information to support patient centred health and wellness care at home. This study explored how smart home telehealth, a form of telehealth where health care is provided at a distance using smart home digital technology (sensors), could assist older people to age in place and enhance their health and wellbeing. It was a two-phase project, preceded by a workshop with experts:1) 41 interviews with older adults and their informal support networks, seven focus groups with 44 health providers working with older adults, which informed 2) a pilot implementation of a co-designed telehealth system, addressing key barriers identified in Phase 1. The system used low cost, easily accessible, and commercially available sensors, transferring information via email and/or text messaging. It was successfully piloted with five older adults and twelve of their respective support networks for six months, who reported an increased feeling of security and improved interpersonal communication. The findings indicate that smart home telehealth could assist aging in place, and the study provides insights into successful co-design of smart home telehealth services at scale that could be implemented and deployed in contexts wider than aged care.
