Jelke Bloem (ILLC) explained the technical background and Ivana Bušljeta Banks (TLC Faculty of Social and Behavioural Sciences) provided examples of how teachers and students could incorporate ChatGPT in a fruitful manner in teaching and learning.

After the presentations, the participants worked together in small groups on different assignments either with use of ChatGPT or without.
