Mostly AI and technology in education. Director of AI at Jisc. Might post the odd music and cat thing too.
We (Jisc) do for colleges. We don’t separate Welsh students and teachers from others in our reports, and it’s a very mixed picture, with concerned mostly being centred are jobs.

Oh! Now you point it out, our research team’s email address doesn’t look right here! I’ll mention this to them. It’s definitely not market research! We just want to get a range of views to help Medr prioritise activities.

There are similar issues with, say, Turnitin. We want to get these discussions in right at the start this time rather than when it’s too.

We really want engagement from critical voices.

Thats the kind of thing we want the pilot participants to answer. We want to collectively work out the most responsible approach. There will be a lot of discussion as there are multiple places we need to consider this. Best way to contribute is engage with people in your uni running the pilots.

All sensible questions! We absolutely want students to be fully involved, and to help universities develop best practice. We know this is a complex area and the views and input from everyone is crucial.

I think it’s largely because developing secure in-house tools is really hard, and data security is an important ethical consideration. With commercial companies it can be managed with contracts.
