UT will organise a special hackathon on AI in education for the second time on 8, 9 and 10 November. This event will bring together teachers, school leaders, managers, students, learners, information specialists & other interested parties to work on innovative solutions to education challenges using AI technologies. The Hackathon promises to be a hotbed of creativity and innovation, where participants will use their expertise to shape the education of the future.
During a hackathon, participants spend a short period of time working non-stop on one particular topic. In this case, AI in education. Participating teams are tasked with solving their own chosen problem with an innovative AI technology. Special Jedi’s (experts in the field of AI) support the teams. Last year’s winners came up with an app that can quickly check chemistry formulas and provide feedback.
