Inhaltsangabe

The digital transformation of higher education institutions has accelerated in the last decade due to the confluent development of digital technologies. Understanding how artificial intelligence-enabled changes and improvements in universities in relation to teaching, management, sustainability, and research allows researchers to understand the advances and identify the challenges that may arise. This knowledge provides technological instruments as well as cognitive, philosophical, and epistemological tools to address different current issues. Strategy, Policy, Practice, and Governance for AI in Higher Education Institutions offers both empirical and theoretical information focused on artificial intelligence and its various applications in higher education institutions. It includes research results, authoritative overview articles, high quality analysis on trends, comparative studies, and analysis of cases that focus on issues including ethical issues and risks for applying AI in higher education, policies to introduce AI in curricula, and applications in teaching and learning. Covering topics such as artificial intelligence ethics, energy efficiency, and postsecondary administrative leadership, this premier reference source is an essential resource for computer scientists, AI scientists, administration of higher education institutions, educators and faculty of higher education, pre-service teachers, researchers, IT professionals, and academicians.
