Critical GenAI Literacy: Postdigital Configurations - Postdigital Science and Education
Critical Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) literacy cannot be reduced to a universal framework. Rather, it must be understood as a constellation of situated literacies, shaped by disciplinary...
Conversation about critical #GenAI literacies is shifting fast.
If youโre only going to read one paper on it, this might be it. It brings together diverse, critical perspectives from leading voices in the field.

New paper on critical #genAI literacy! Happy to have been part of this dialogueโsuperbly coordinated by Chrysi. Hope our framework can contribute toward new dialogues on what AI-related skills and knowledge people need given our #postdigital condition:

Article title: Sensing Ethics in Postdigital Future Classrooms
Abstract
In this paper, we introduce and develop the concept of โsensing ethicsโ as a relational approach to thinking about postdigital future classrooms that is informed by
our material realities, social and institutional structures, and our responsibilities as
educators towards our students. A postdigital lens on ethics emphasises the importance of relationships and interconnectedness in ethical decision-making, moving
away from a focus on individual autonomy. It considers how actions afect relationships between humans and non-humans. This perspective moves beyond rule-based
ethics, and towards an approach that is more relational, situated, and decentralised.
We explore sensing ethics through three examples drawing on the theory of practice
architectures. We analyse these examples through the entangled โdoingsโ, โsayingsโ,
and โrelatingsโ to unpack the complexities emerging in how educators and students
enact sensing ethics and how ethics materialises in their human and non-human relationships. Sensing ethics does not require a fxed defnition or defnitive solutions;
rather, it is a proactive and intentional practice situated in the present that shapes the
near future of postdigital future classrooms.
New paper!๐ฉ
@dewawardak.bsky.social & I introduce 'sensing ethics' - a relational approach to #ethics in (post)digital #classrooms. Grounded in practice theory, we focus on how ethics is enacted through everyday โdoingโ, โsayingโ and โrelatingโ.

โ Gen AI is framed in different ways. For some, itโs โjust a toolโ, an โactive learning partnerโ, for others, something much bigger, messier. Some suggest one chatbot should do it all, others argue for multiple chatbots for different tasks. Some focus on text prompts, others ask AI to describe images to understand how it โthinksโ (Cory Dal Ponte, Anastasia Globa)
โ Some use Gen AI โjust like googleโ, missing out on its potential as a dialogic tool. Slowly changing, it shows the importance of prompting โ now as crucial as reading and writing. Some interesting prompting models out there, e.g. ROSE (Role, objective, style, exemplar) (Dr. Kelsey Burton, Jeremy Lindeck)
โ Engagement with Gen AI is emotional. Frustration when it doesnโt โgive me exactly what I wantโ. Gen AI increasingly slows and paces interactions. Guiding students can build confidence
โ The gap in how we learn about Gen AI is widening. Students are more open to exploring it, while some educators remain hesitant. Meanwhile, many students are unsure how to use Gen AI in class, but actively use it outside. (Jeremy Lindeck)

โ Collisions โ of ideas, disciplines, perspectives โ are rarely smooth, but they can lead to great things. Gen AI is colliding with everything โ particularly with assessments. It challenges how we epistemically assess learning. Discussions are shifting from assessments as products to processes. If AI-generated work performs at the same level as students, what does that mean for assessment design? (Boyd Britton; Giordana Orsini)
โ Co-design and co-creation are gaining momentum. Educators are talking about co-designing activities/assessments with others and with AI โ a much-needed, refreshing shift (Swapneel Thite,)
โ Students navigate multiple Gen AI ecosystems. Many international students rely on non-Western AI tools, while many government/institutional policies assume Western platforms like ChatGPT. In one study, 1/3 of Chinese international students in a New Zealand university had never used Western Gen AI tools. How do we ensure AI-integrated learning is inclusive? (Pedram Nourani, Anthony Ryan)

โ Educators and students donโt just need to โknowโ about AI โ they need AI competences. Still unclear what that looks like. We should be explorers, not just visitors. Hands-on, sometimes uncomfortable, engagement with Gen AI is necessary (Prof. Dr. Henrik Dindas, Frank Paul Schulte)
โ Calls for free play, role play and game-based learning where Gen AI is integrated to make learning more engaging, meaningful and authentic. One session on sheep and pregnancy detection with AIโฆ why not? (Melanie White, Mike Seymour, sophia li, Mark Freeman, Olga Kozar)
