Studierwerkstatt-Workshop: AI as a Tool for Writing [ENG]
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is changing everything, including academic writing, research, and more. But AI is more than just chatbots like ChatGPT. With a growing number of AI tools available, it’s challenging to determine which ones are truly useful and how to make the most of them.
That’s why we’re offering a workshop in the upcoming summer semester to explore both the opportunities and challenges of AI. You’ll gain insights into different tools and the technology behind AI, learn how to use them effectively to improve your writing, and understand the academic guidelines for their application.
If you’re curious about the do's and dont's of AI at the University, join our workshop!
Friday, 23.01. ,10 am - 1pm, at ZBL (Room 02.108)
instructor: writing tutor Lukas Ehrenfeld

A/D: KI-Kompetenzen in der Hochschullehre: Kreative Einsatzmöglichkeiten generativer KI (German only, online)
Das Seminar richtet sich an Lehrende, die bereits erste Erfahrungen mit generativer KI gesammelt haben und nun weitere Anwendungsszenarien und Strategien zur Verbesserung der Qualität der KI-Erzeugnisse kennenlernen wollen. Die erste Sitzung gibt einen Überblick über Stärken und aktuelle Schwächen generativer KI. Zwischen den beiden Sitzungen erproben Sie in der Selbstlernphase die vermittelten Strategien im Dialog mit einer KI Ihrer Wahl. In der zweiten Sitzung reflektieren wir die Erfahrungen aus der Selbstlernphase und fokussieren auf das Erstellen von lernförderlichen KI-Bildern sowie optional auf die Entwicklung von aktivierenden KI-Aufgaben.
Date: May 12 and May 19, 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.

Utilising artificial intelligence productively for teaching - that is the common goal of the funded AI projects in the WueDive project. Employees and students from various faculties are working on specially trained chatbots and AI assistance models, developing adaptive learning environments or testing existing tools for teaching applications.

[denk]anstoß - what is that anyway?
From self-organisation, reading and writing strategies to digital literacy and critical thinking - with the "[denk]anstoß" format, we focus on an interdisciplinary topic every year, which often falls by the wayside due to the tightly scheduled university routine.
In addition to an introductory lecture at the start of each semester, we offer brief insights into current discourse, present tried-and-tested concepts, highlight strategic options for action or invite discussion and participation.
The formats are aimed at students and teaching staff.
