Scaling AI in higher ed: What institutional leaders are doing differently in 2026
Institutional leaders do not have an AI problem. They have an adoption and scaling problem. When AI spreads through informal experimentation, it leads to uneven practice across departments, higher support costs, and faculty pushback. The institutions making real progress are not adding more tools. They are standardizing a small set of safe, high value workflows that protect academic standards and reduce workload.
This panel is a candid leader to leader conversation on what makes AI adoption stick. You will hear which guardrails build trust with faculty and governance stakeholders, including privacy, integrity, and transparency. You will learn how Teaching and Learning leaders support faculty without mandating tools, using templates, shared rubrics, and reusable workflows. You will also see how leaders measure efficiency gains that stand up in budget cycles and accountability conversations.

Developing Lifelong Skills with Active Learning Design
In the post-AI educational landscape, designing meaningful courses that engage students and prepare them for their future professions is no small feat. To engage all diverse learners and stimulate the transfer of lifelong competencies, learning design needs to deploy authentic, inclusive assessment while ensuring high quality across different learning modalities.
Are you seeking innovative strategies to drive active learning and foster collaboration in various educational settings? Join our webinar to explore the best practices and insights shared by instructors and learning designers at the Texas A&M University, who transformed their curriculum with FeedbackFruits' solutions for iterative team-based learning, peer feedback, and social annotation activities.
Nurturing student satisfaction through personalised assessment and feedback
Student well-being and a sense of agency are crucial to maintaining motivation and retention. Despite that, students in the UK and Ireland make it clear that their voices are not being heard. With faculties struggling to address emerging student concerns in time on top of their already heavy workload, there is a clear need for more personalised, student-centred assessment and learning practices that can both free instructors’ time and boost student satisfaction.
Join this webinar to dive deeper into the FeedbackFruits solutions and learn how Imperial College London and the University of Bath used FeedbackFruits to drive an institutional assessment and feedback transformation that saved faculties’ time and enriched the student experience.
Enhancing the learning and assessment experience with FeedbackFruits
Student dissatisfaction with feedback and assessment is one of the leading concerns in ensuring high-quality learning and teaching in the UK and Ireland. Relying on passive modes of assessment causes a deep disconnect between skills needed for the future versus the skills being assessed. To bridge this gap, it is necessary that educators adopt diverse and authentic assessment methods, but how can institutions implement them effectively?
Jisc recently partnered with FeedbackFruits to better address educational challenges as such and continue supporting higher and further education institutions in the region. With a tool suite of 15 VLE-integrated solutions, FeedbackFruits helps educators streamline the (peer) feedback processes, facilitate authentic assessment, and encourage collaboration in any setting.
Join the webinar to learn how FeedbackFruits can help your institution efficiently scale feedback and assessment processes and enrich the student experience.
Digitizing team-based learning with FeedbackFruits
Team-based learning is one of the most effective pedagogical approaches to encourage collaboration and critical thinking, but it can be laborious to implement, deliver, and manage, especially for large cohorts. To help combat this challenge, FeedbackFruits developed the LMS-integrated Team Based Learning solution to digitize the TBL process and make it much more streamlined, seamless, and engaging for both online and in-person participants.
Join this webinar for a deep dive into the new and improved FeedbackFruits Team Based Learning tool, explore best practices from TBL experts at Texas Christian University School of Medicine, and learn how Boston College scaled TBL to foster collaboration and employability skills.
Embracing ChatGPT and AI with best authentic assessment strategies
With the rapid advancement of AI solutions such as ChatGPT, higher education institutions are struggling to ensure academic integrity while maintaining quality, growth-oriented learning experiences.

How to facilitate effective group work at business schools
Preparing students to thrive in the business world by equipping them with cross-functional skills such as leadership, collaboration and communication lies at the heart of business education. Development of these skills relies heavily on maintaining an effective feedback loop among students, ensuring group accountability, and facilitating in-class discussions. However, this can be challenging as instructors often find themselves facing pedagogical problems such as free-riding in group work, low feedback quality, result-oriented assessment or learner disengagement.
This 45-min webinar aims to gather teachers and instructional designers from business schools in a panel discussion to share and exchange ideas on improving group dynamics and social loafing in team based education.
