From 'Policing' to 'Possibilities': An Introduction to the 'CRAFT' Framework for AI Integration in Higher Education

Join this interactive online session with Professor Danny Liu as he explores meaningful ways to integrate AI into the classroom.

Professor Danny Liu will discuss both a framework for action and a call for transformative change in how we prepare students, educators, academics, and administrators for an AI-enabled future. Hosted by A/Prof Geoff Hinchcliffe, Interim Pro Vice-Chancellor (Learning & Teaching), this session will include time for audience questions and discussion.

Participants are strongly encouraged to familarise themselves ahead of the session with both the Two Lane assessment approach and CRAFT framework - which is founded on five interdependent elements: culture, rules, access, familiarity, and trust.

Culture represents both the greatest challenge and opportunity, requiring institutions to rethink their role in an AI-enabled world.
Rules must evolve from restrictive policies to enabling frameworks that encourage innovation while ensuring ethical governance.
Access remains a critical equity issue, as AI risks exacerbating existing digital divides without deliberate interventions to ensure equitable access to tools, infrastructure, and support.
Familiarity emphasizes the need for systematic development of AI literacy among all stakeholders.
Trust is identified as the foundation for progress, requiring transparency, collaboration, and demonstrated value across all levels of engagement.
