Summary
This week, we're resharing a popular episode from the archives. Dr. Wafa Almansoori, Interim President and Provost of American University of Bahrain (AUBH) joins host, Dr. Ashraf Mahate to discuss: Preparing students for a world with AI, and the challenges for universities in revising curriculum, training faculty, and establishing ethical guidelines. How AUBH are incorporating collaboration across disciplines to mirror real-world challenges. Dr. Wafa shares her thoughts on the mixed messages higher education sometimes sends to students: when their final grade dictates their opportunities more than the learning journey itself. This can leave students confused about what truly matters.
