\n\t\t\t\tOne of the consequences of synthetic learning is the disappearance of time as a pedagogical force. In an age defined by velocity, the university\u2019s most radical responsibility may be to defend time itself, not as nostalgia but as the structural prerequisite for responsible intelligence.

\n\t\t\tExpecting students to perform intellectually while they are hungry is neither realistic nor ethical. If we accept, as we do in basic education, that a hungry child is a failing child, then a hungry student is equally compromised. Higher education in Africa must confront this reality honestly.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tGenerative artificial intelligence is reshaping how universities teach, learn and assess. Across African higher education, the urgent task is to secure credible evidence of learning now while preparing a careful transition toward more inquiry-centred pedagogical futures. One transitional orientation may be described as dialogic human-AI learning.<\/p>\n
