Description

The rapid advancement of technology and the sudden impact of the pandemic have ushered in significant changes in the field of education in recent years. Many educators and mentors today were originally trained in traditional in-person classroom settings and have had to swiftly adapt to this evolving landscape. Within the educational community, there is an ongoing discussion regarding the strengths and limitations of online teaching, often highlighting the essential role of in-person interactions. However, in this presentation, we aim to explore whether this shift toward online education is still reversible or if the world has undergone irreversible changes. Drawing from our experiences in conducting a 2-hour workshop titled "ChatGPT in Action: Enhancing your workflow", both in-person and online over the last months, we will examine the difference in the implementation and outcomes of these workshops in various educational settings.
We will offer insights into the distinct approaches taken in preparing the materials and the activities to be carried out during the workshop from a teacher's perspective. Furthermore, we will share our observations on participant's behavior during and following the delivery of these workshops.
