Using Generative Artificial Intelligence in Education and Science
Join us for an exciting virtual event on “Using Generative Artificial Intelligence in Education and Science”, where we will delve into the revolutionary applications of artificial intelligence in the field of engineering education and research. How can generative AI be used creatively by educators and students? How can Generative AI enhance the critical thinking of both students and researchers in engineering education? Several experiments which showcase the integration of GenAI into project development and assessment on different subjects in education will be presented from both educators’ and students’ perspectives.
