Overview
Join the webinar to learn how educators use generative AI tools, like MATLAB Copilot, to create engaging MATLAB curriculum. Attendees will see real curriculum examples and workflows for creating instructional content, hands-on activities, and assessment instruments. Educators will learn how to use these tools in their own curriculum development, as well as how to equip students with tools to aid their coding and project-based learning. We will share insightful customer stories that demonstrate the practical application of these technologies in teaching.
Who Should Attend:
- Instructional designers and curriculum developers
- University faculty and instructors in STEM disciplines
- Academic deans and department chairs
Highlights
In this session, you’ll learn how to:
- Create MATLAB learning activities using MATLAB Copilot
- Update existing learning activities to have more MATLAB interactions
- Use MATLAB Copilot to give students feedback on their code and explain errors
- Call LLMs from within MATLAB using APIs
- Access other Generative AI tools, like our custom GPT for ChatGPT
- Set proper expectations or students on responsible use of Generative AI
Please allow approximately 45 minutes to attend the presentation and Q&A session. We will be recording this webinar, so if you can't make it for the live broadcast, register and we will send you a link to watch it on-demand.
