Innovative Pedagogies and Ethics in the Age of AI meets the challenges of an era defined by rapidly accelerating artificial intelligence (AI) in higher education. Scholars offer pedagogical innovations in ethics and inclusion vital to the future of teaching and learning. Their research provides theoretical explorations, practical applications, and adaptable frameworks to generate pedagogies that foster meaningful, socially responsible teaching and learning in the age of AI.The volume brings together leading teacher-scholars from tech ethics, media, communication, the humanities, the social sciences, and STEM. Authors examine how AI is reshaping the conditions of teaching and knowledge production in order to provide both discipline-specific critical guidance and interdisciplinary strategies indispensable to the emergent AI landscape.Sponsored by the Communication, Information Technologies, and Media Sociology section of the American Sociological Association (CITAMS), Volume 30 of Studies in Media and Communications meets the demand for new forms of critical, inclusive, and ethically grounded pedagogy.
