Abstract
In the ever-evolving higher education landscape, the integration of AI, particularly Generative AI (GenAI), is causing a profound shift. This chapter explores how GenAI is reshaping teaching, learning, and academic literacies. Academic literacies facilitators now navigate a diverse terrain, bridging traditional materials, digital resources, and AI-enhanced texts. They cultivate scholars' proficiency in GenAI tools and pioneer innovative teaching methods. This chapter introduces a GenAI ontology to support this transformative journey. It equips facilitators and students to use GenAI effectively, fostering tailored teaching methods and personalised literacies assessments. In summary, this chapter presents GenAI's potential to innovate, enhance accessibility, and elevate academic prowess in higher education.
