Enhancing Situated Learning in the Classroom with Generative AI Simulations

Presented by Ms Georgia Cam
Macquarie Law School, Faculty of Arts, Macquarie University

It is one thing to mandate attendance through participation marks, it is another thing entirely to foster deep engagement with course content. The restraints of the archetypal classroom risk reducing tutorials to transactional exchanges rather than transformative learning experiences. When convenors and tutors embrace Generative AI, students can engage in simulations that transcend the four white walls of the classroom, transporting them to a whole world of simulated scenarios that motivate and inspire their future careers.
