The Carpentries is hosting a new series of GenAI + Teaching Discussions, bringing educators together to share their experiences: the challenges and opportunities they have identified, strategies they have tried in response, and what they learned in the process. Although conversations are expected to place a particular focus on the teaching of computational research skills (programming, data handling and analysis, etc), all educators are welcome at these sessions.
The first call will take place on Thursday 18 June, at 12:00 UTC and 19:00 UTC (follow links to see these converted to your local time). The session will begin with an invited presentation from Elle O'Brien, co-author of Scientific Software in the Age of Vibe Coding and A Survey of Generative AI Adoption and Perceived Productivity Among Scientists Who Program, and Director of the AI & Data Science Graduate Certificate at the University of Michigan.
We'd encourage any colleagues interested in these conversations to register and get involved.
