Watch Shaping UQ’s AI future (YouTube, 50s):
Students and staff from UQ have been doing research to understand AI in education. One thing they learned was that most students wanted more guidance on using AI in their studies. That is why we created this website.
- Winter research students Claudia Maya and Alessandra Tran developed guides based on findings from focus groups:
- Surveys building on the focus groups in August 2024. Almost 3000 UQ students completed the Student Perspectives on AI survey.
- UQ Union and the Institute of Teaching and Learning Innovation (ITaLI) worked together to hold student forums about AI.
Reach out to UQ Union to understand your rights or raise concerns about AI in your classes.
The UQ Union represents the diverse interests of students and runs services to enhance your daily experience.
The UQ Union Academic Advocacy Network is a community of students from all across UQ who meet to discuss key issues affecting students. Together, we ensure that student voices are part of the conversation when important changes are being made at UQ.
The UQ Union Advocacy Network has been a key voice representing students to inform UQ’s approaches for AI in teaching and learning.
Discover how students and staff are working together to improve AI integration and shape academic policies.
Student-Staff Partnership (SSP) projects enable students and staff to collaborate as equal partners and transform the UQ experience. Since 2023 there have been a range of SSPs working on how we respond to and work with AI in teaching and learning, including:
- 2023:
- Functionality and limitation of ChatGPT in written assessments
- Learning resources to build digital literacy. This included updating the Digital Essentials Artificial Intelligence module.
- 2024: Integrating GenAI in Science: Transformative Learning Strategies for UQ Student and Coding with AI.

Join the conversation and help shape UQ’s AI policies by sharing your feedback and ideas.
We welcome your input into UQ’s work with AI in teaching and learning. Please provide any feedback or ideas:
In 2025, students can participate in focus groups, forums, and co-design workshops to more actively shape the UQ community response to AI.
Co-design workshops involving students, teaching staff, and industry members will be held to:
- co-create an AI in teaching and learning ethical framework
- explore how AI changes traditional ideas of ‘academic integrity’
- help design a UQ Student and Staff AI in education module
- prototype ‘use cases’ and ‘scenarios’ about student-AI feedback possibilities.
Hack-a-thons are being explored through a UQ-Monash-UTS-Deakin AI project with more information coming soon.
A series of Student Voice Forums will be held across UQ campuses to enable students to share their views and experiences of using AI at UQ. This will inform UQ’s Academic Board through the Teaching, Learning, and Student Experience Committee.
Register your interest to participate in UQ co-designs, hack-a-thons, and forums —or just indicate that you want to be kept informed about changes and updates to AI use in assessment, teaching, and learning at UQ.
