KAiZEN Collab! - Day 1: Inspiration Gallery [External Registration]

Curious about how AI is already shaping teaching, learning, research, and university life at King's?

Join us for the KAiZEN Collab! Inspiration Gallery, an interactive showcase celebrating the diverse ways students and staff across King's are using, building, testing, researching, and critically engaging with artificial intelligence.

Alongside a gallery of projects, prototypes, research, and teaching innovations from across the university, attendees can participate in a series of hands-on workshops designed to deepen their understanding of AI in higher education:

Student Workshops

• Building an AI Tutor from Your Own Course Materials – Learn how AI tools can be tailored to support learning using your own academic content.
• Critical Engagement with GenAI & Introduction to Prompt Engineering – Explore the opportunities and limitations of generative AI while developing practical prompting skills.

Staff Workshop

• Redesigning Teaching & Assessment in the Age of AI - This hands-on workshop invites colleagues to move beyond the "AI as threat" narrative and explore what process-focused, reflective assessment can look like in practice. Together, we'll experiment with assessment designs that make student thinking visible, value learning journeys alongside final outputs, and position AI as a critical learning partner rather than a shortcut.

Through practical activities and collaborative discussion, participants will develop ideas and approaches they can take directly back to their own teaching. Whether you're actively redesigning assessments or just beginning to explore the implications of AI for education, this workshop offers a supportive space to think, test, and learn alongside colleagues.

Who is it for? Academic, professional services staff, and GTAs involved in teaching, learning, and assessment.

Whether you're an AI enthusiast, a sceptic, a complete beginner, or somewhere in between, this event offers a space to discover new ideas, meet people from different disciplines, and reflect on the opportunities and challenges AI presents in higher education.

Come along, get inspired, and help shape the future of AI at King's.

Info: Dr Oram is a Consultant Haematologist with a specialist interest in Paediatric and Adolescent/Young Adult Haematology, and a Reader at King’s College London. She is the FoLSM Lead for AI in Education and Director of Assessments at GKT Medical School.

Alongside her clinical and academic roles, she contributes nationally to medical education and assessment as Associate Medical Director for Assessment Quality at the Federation of the Royal Colleges of Physicians of the UK, a GMC Medical Licensing Assessment Advisor, and a Senior Examiner for both MRCP and FRCPath. She also contributes to the British Society for Haematology Teenage/Young Adult Specialty Interest Group.

Info: This interactive workshop introduces participants to key ethical, environmental, and practical considerations surrounding the use of generative AI, alongside a hands-on introduction to prompt engineering. Through short activities and discussion, participants will explore topics including sustainability, bias, and responsible AI use while experimenting with a range of popular AI tools. The session encourages a more thoughtful and critical approach to engaging with generative AI technologies.

Suitable for beginners and non-technical audiences. No prior knowledge or technical experience is required.

Info: Dina Strong is a KIF Lecturer in English for Academic Purposes at King's College London, where she leads the CIEL Generative AI in Education Community of Practice and serve as incoming Co-Convenor of BALEAP's Testing, Assessment and Feedback SIG. Her work focuses on reimagining assessment and feedback for the age of AI - treating generative tools as a critical friend rather than a threat to academic integrity. With a PhD in Applied Linguistics (Birkbeck) and over twenty years in EAP, she's particularly interested in process-focused, AI-resilient designs that keep student thinking at the centre.
