APTA presented a submission to the House of Representatives Standing Committee on Employment, Education and Training inquiry into the issues and opportunities presented by generative Artificial Intelligence (AI), with its intention to explore current and future impacts on Australia’s early childhood education, schools, and higher education sectors.
Our response is about the crucial role that professional teaching associations, their state and territory-based joint councils and collaborative teacher networks generally will play in addressing the generative AI in Education in Australia.
APTA acknowledges the Ministers for Education national agreement for a National Artificial Intelligence (AI) Taskforce to develop a framework that is evidence-based for Australian Education to guide the use of generative AI tools, and that the Taskforce will undertake consultation on a draft AI framework for government schools.
