Albany Gen AI Workshop

Want to learn more about Generative AI in your teaching and study? Join us for this workshop in Albany!

Curtin University Library has been exploring ways for teachers and students to enjoy the potential of Generative AI (GenAI) while being aware of the risks, inherent biases, and challenges it brings.  In partnership with the Great Southern Universities Centre, Curtin University Library proudly presents a workshop on GenAI for teachers (K-12 and Higher Ed) and university students. This 1.5-hour workshop will cover the basics of using GenAI, what you need to watch out for and some of the best ways to use these tools. With a hands-on, activity-based approach, learn how to use GenAI to improve your productivity and save time on everyday teaching tasks and enhance your study skills!

You don’t have to have used GenAI before – this workshop is for all levels of knowledge. Workshop includes:

• An overview of what GenAI is and recommendations for safe and appropriate use.

• Examples of useful GenAI tools for teachers and students.

• Examples of useful prompts to enhance your teaching and/or study.

There will be time to have a go and discuss and share ideas.  

REQUIREMENTS:

Please bring along your laptop to join in the activities (we will share laptops in group activities so if you don’t have one, that’s okay too).
