Please join us for a Generative Artificial Intelligence Skills in Schools (GenAISiS) workshop, taking place on Wednesday 18th June, 1:30-3:30pm, at the Mitchell Library in Glasgow.

The workshop will report on the results of GenAISiS, a project funded by Responsible AI and delivered by a team of researchers at Robert Gordon University in partnership with CILIPS (Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals in Scotland) and school library professionals across Scotland.

During the workshop, we will present the data collected from secondary school students via practical activities, questionnaires and focus groups that explored their engagement, experiences and feelings around Generative Artificial Intelligence. Part of the presentation will include a screening of a video cartoon story co-created with young people, which addresses the experiences they shared. The presentation will also showcase a co-produced open educational toolkit that features a range of activities and resources for schools. Our aim is to welcome local schools and other key education stakeholders, gathering their feedback on the tools and content presented on the day.

CILIPS members, fellow professionals, families and young people of all ages are all welcome to attend this free workshop. No prior experience in AI is needed, only an interest in learning more about the responsible use of AI and contributing to the creation of materials that will benefit young people in developing their understanding of GenAI for years to come!

Please register in advance to join this popular in-person workshop. Tickets will be provided on a first come, first served basis. Should you no longer be able to attend, we kindly ask you to cancel your ticket as this will enable new spaces.
