Održana obuka za zaposlene koji učestvuju u nastavi

Komisija za praćenje i unapređenje kvaliteta nastave organizovala je obuku za sve zaposlene koji učestvuju u nastavi. Obuka je održana u četvrtak (24.09.2026.) u 12:00 u sali 61. Tema obuke je bila integracija GenAI u obrazovni proces, a predavač je bio jedan od trenutno vodećih stručnjaka u ovoj oblasti Dr Saša Nikolić. U nastavku su detalji o temi održane obuke, kao i o predavaču. Komisija će se truditi da u narednom periodu organizuje nove obuke koje za cilj imaju unapređenje kvaliteta nastave.

Title: Co-Intelligence for Humanity: Learning with AI, Not from It

Abstract: As generative AI becomes embedded in everyday problem-solving, engineering education faces a defining question: How do we prepare engineers who can work with powerful technologies while remaining deeply human-centered, ethical, and socially responsible? This training reframes AI not as a replacement for human intelligence, but as a collaborative tool serving humanity. This training introduces the CAC Co-Intelligence Framework, a practical model that guides both students and educators toward meaningful and responsible engagement with AI.

Participants will examine how students are already using AI in design, analysis, and learning, and why simply restricting or encouraging AI use is insufficient. Instead, the training offers a practical model for helping learners distinguish between constructive, human-advancing uses of AI and uses that undermine learning, agency, or ethical responsibility. Attendees will leave with actionable strategies for embedding co-intelligence into engineering curricula, ensuring graduates are not only technically proficient, but also prepared to design solutions for people, communities, and the planet.

Biography: Dr Sasha Nikolic is an Associate Professor at the University of Wollongong, holding a PhD in Engineering Education and a BE in Telecommunications. With a diverse background spanning industry roles in retail, electronics manufacturing, and IT, he transitioned to the university sector in 2006. He is the President of the Australasian Association for Engineering Education (AAEE) and a Senior Fellow of the Wollongong Academy of Tertiary Teaching and Learning Excellence. A Senior IEEE Member, Sasha has held prominent IEEE governance roles across the NSW Section, Education Society and the Australia Council.

Sasha is internationally recognised for his leadership in engineering education, receiving numerous accolades including Australian Awards for University Teaching Citations (2012, 2019), University of Wollongong Outstanding Contribution to Teaching and Learning Awards (2011, 2018, 2025), AAEE Awards (2019, 2023, 2025), the IEEE NSW Outstanding Volunteer Award (2024), the SEFI Best Paper Award (2024), and a IEEE Education Society Meritorious Service Award (2023). He has also contributed to impactful research on Generative AI and academic integrity, and champions laboratory learning as a space for developing uniquely human capabilities in an AI-enhanced education system.

A key focus of his recent work is the role of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) in reshaping education. Sasha leads collaborative, multi-institutional research that examines GenAI’s impact on academic integrity, curriculum design, assessment authenticity, ethics, and the evolving role of educators. His work highlights how GenAI is not only a technological disruptor but a catalyst for reimagining teaching and learning practices across engineering and higher education. Through the Australasian Artificial Intelligence in Engineering Education Centre (AAIEEC), which he founded and currently leads as President, Sasha coordinates national workshops, policy reviews, and research clusters that provide holistic oversight of the risks, opportunities, and human-centric competencies essential for thriving in AI-augmented learning environments.
He is also a sought-after speaker and consultant on GenAI in education, offering research-driven insights through keynote addresses, professional development workshops, and strategy sessions for educators, institutions, and policymakers.
