Description

This interactive two-session online workshop supports academics and researchers in integrating Generative AI critically and responsibly across the research pipeline, from data acquisition and statistical computation to qualitative coding and interpretation.

Grounded in how large language models work, the workshop equips participants with both practical competencies and the conceptual literacy needed to evaluate AI outputs, navigate methodological and ethical challenges, and align their practice with the European Research Area’s Living Guidelines on the Responsible Use of Generative AI in Research.

Through demonstrations, guided experimentation and discipline-specific application, participants leave with the skills to use Generative AI reflexively, ethically and rigorously within their own research traditions.

 

Participation: 

Participation is limited to 25 participants in order to ensure an interactive, hands-on learning experience.

Registration implies a commitment to attend both sessions.
