Content and Methodology

Through interactive sessions, case studies, and collaborative analysis, we will critically assess the implications of AI in areas such as authorship, interpretation, and meaning-making. We’ll explore how AI systems, from natural language processing tools to algorithm-driven media, influence our understanding of creativity, authenticity, and intellectual labour. The workshop also includes hands-on activities where participants will work directly with AI tools, considering both their potential and limitation. 


The 3-day intensive workshop, preceded and followed by online cooperation will include seminars that use collaborative learning methods. 18 students of EUGLOH universities are expected to take part in the program for 3 ECTS
