A recent presentation at the RIDE 2026 conference highlighted how generative artificial intelligence can be harnessed to promote inclusive student voice in education. The talk, titled 'Harnessing Generative AI for Inclusive Student Voice: Listening to Learners Where They Speak,' was delivered by Ahmet Durgungoz and William Eames as part of the conference's Parallel 3C session.
The presentation explored innovative ways to leverage generative AI tools to capture and incorporate student feedback, particularly from learners who may not engage through traditional channels. By meeting students in the digital spaces they already inhabit, educators can gather more authentic and diverse perspectives.
RIDE 2026, the 20th annual international conference organized by the Centre for Online and Distance Education (CODE), focused on reflecting on two decades of technology-facilitated education, innovating for learner success, developing inclusive and accessible education, and envisioning the future of online, distance, blended, and digital learning.
The conference took place on March 12-13, 2026, and this session was recorded and made available on YouTube.
