AI & Learning: An Evening with Dr Sara Ratner

Purpose of event 

Artificial intelligence is already shaping how young people learn, create, and think. Preparing young people with the literacy and skills to engage with it thoughtfully, safely and responsibly is becoming increasingly important.

We invite you to join us for an evening of insight, discussion, and practical guidance with internationally recognised researcher Dr Sara Ratner from the University of Oxford, as part of the AI Knowledge Exchange.

Hosted by the Forrest Research Foundation and the Fogarty Foundation, this event will bring together global expertise and local perspectives to explore what AI means for education in Western Australia. The evening will include context for the current WA setting, followed by a keynote address from Dr Sara Ratner.

Attendees can expect:

• Practical insights into how AI is impacting teaching and learning

• Guidance on how communities and schools can support young people to use AI responsibly

• Opportunities to learn from leading researchers on AI in education

This session is designed to support parents, caregivers, and educators to feel informed and confident in navigating this rapidly changing space.
