Hi everyone,

A new interview on our podcast 'Create. Share. Engage.' went live today. I interviewed Dr Vickel Narayan, a Senior Lecturer in Digital Learning in the Institute of Education at Massey University in Aotearoa New Zealand. He's been working with portfolios for nearly two decades at various institutions of higher and tertiary education in Aotearoa and Australia.

Vickel shares his thoughts around the use of artificial intelligence, in particular large language models, in education and portfolio practice. He highlights AI use to support student ownership and giving students tools on hand to create multimodal content more easily than they'd been able to do otherwise.

As usual, you can listen to it in your podcast app or on the podcast's website.

Enjoy

Kristina
