Formulating an AI Integration Framework for Educational Institutions
Course Description:
The rapid integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in education offers transformative opportunities for personalized learning, instructional innovation, and administrative efficiency. However, it also introduces ethical challenges related to data privacy, algorithmic bias, academic integrity, and equitable access.
This paper presents a qualitative review of global and regional ethical AI frameworks—including those from UNESCO, the European Union, and the World Economic Forum—along with industry standards and academic literature. The review identifies core ethical principles such as transparency, fairness, accountability, inclusiveness, and privacy, which are foundational guidelines for responsible AI use in educational settings.
Beyond the literature synthesis, the paper incorporates practice-based insights from the phased development of an institutional AI integration strategy, illustrating how ethical principles can be operationalized into policies, training programs, and digital governance mechanisms.
The findings highlight the critical role of transformative digital leadership, stakeholder collaboration, and sustained upskilling in creating ethical, adaptable, and context-sensitive AI strategies. This study contributes to advancing responsible AI adoption in education by offering a consolidated review of ethical frameworks and actionable strategies for institutional implementation.
It concludes with recommendations for developing localized AI policies rooted in ethical standards, ensuring that the integration of AI enhances rather than undermines the core values of education.

The Sharpest Knife in the Drawer: Working Smarter not Harder
Course Description:
The Center for Online Learning (COLL) at the University of Guam supports students, staff, and faculty in their digital education endeavors. In this presentation, we will share one of our online teacher training courses: Enhance. The course demonstrates Moodle-integrated audio/visual learning tools designed to improve student retention and enhance learning. We feature online teaching best practices for universal design for learning (UDL), mobile-friendly design, and BigBlueButton, for low-bandwidth synchronous teaching contexts. We introduce teachers to H5P activities and the asynchronous digital tool, VoiceThread, for content delivery, student discussion, and collaboration. Our Enhance training encourages faculty to use the tools available to them, working smarter not harder, to develop memorable, high-quality, online Moodle courses. Finally, our trainers practice what we preach by organizing the course to encourage self-directed learning with an open-schedule, self-paced, and highly automated course design.
