Hands-on AI: from hackathons to co-design sessions
In the event series Hands-on AI, we invite UvA staff and students to actively contribute to the future of AI in education and research. During these interactive sessions, participants explore the possibilities, limitations, and ethical considerations of generative AI (GenAI) in higher education. The initiative focuses on improving AI literacy, supporting innovation in teaching and learning, and helping educators guide students in responsible and effective AI use.
For whom?
Each session in the series brings together users, AI experts and developers. This series is ideal for lecturers who want to experiment with AI development within the university and enjoy being involved in an innovative project. The ultimate aim of the Hands-On AI series is to ensure that lecturers can effectively guide students, supported by UvA AI Chat. Together with fellow staff and students, you will tackle current challenges in education to help achieve this goal, for example how to use build your very own persona within the AI Chat for certain tasks.
