Coding Ateliers

As part of CDSI, the Data Science Solutions Hub (DaS2H) offers Coding Ateliers to the entire McGill community, where you can drop-in during atelier hours with your laptop, work on your research project and, whenever you have a question, we would be happy to assist you on the spot. If your question turns out to be a bigger issue that we cannot solve instantly, we will advise you how to best proceed.

Panel Overview: Instructors design and implement the teaching that students experience. This panel will focus on how Generative AI is forcing us to rethink what and how we teach and conduct assessments. Instructors and students from different disciplines will share reflections on their experiences and discuss future directions for teaching in the age of Generative AI.  

Questions explored:

Panel Overview: Students learn in formal and informal settings and ways. Generative AI will challenge our assumptions about the way learning happens and what it means to have learned something. This panel will explore the experiences of instructors and students from different disciplines and look to future directions for learning in the age of generative AI.

Overview: While beliefs regarding the impact of AI on education – both realized and potential – are readily available, what we actually know and understand about such impacts is still quite limited.  This panel will illustrate some of the routes that researchers are taking towards building a better collective understanding necessary for the responsible use of AI in education.
