Masterclass on Use of AI in April

[Adaptive Development | #AdaptDev]

Dear Colleagues,

Artificial intelligence (AI) is here to stay.  Are you adequately leveraging AI models for your research and evaluation purposes?

If you are just making simple queries in AI models, you are just scratching the surface.

ChatGPT alone can conduct literature reviews, actually analyze transcripts from interviews and focus group discussions, turning them into comprehensive reports with summarized themes, as well as generate images. Other AI models generate videos with voice narration in multiple languages...in less than 60 seconds!

Join the online masterclass from Monday, April 22, 2024 - Thursday, April 25, 2024 to learn all of the foregoing and much more!

​

Aim of workshop: To give practical tips for researchers and Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) practitioners on how to use AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude.ai and Perplexity.ai) to analyse qualitative data. The course covers:

• Introduction to the different AI tools
• Overview of AI's transformation of research and evaluation methodologies
• How to write proper prompts
• Real-world examples where AI has been instrumental in research and evaluation.
• Ethics in the use of AI
• Data protection and privacy
• Creating your own AI assistant
• "Hands on" exercises on how data can be input, processed, and analyzed.

Target Audience: Researchers, development and M&E professionals who are at varying stages of their career. The assumption is that most people would never have used AI or have heard of the tools, so the workshop will be pitched at an introductory level. Persons are however being encouraged to make a free account with ChatGPT and Claude.ai before the workshop so they can fully participate in the exercises on the days of the event.

Duration: The workshop is via Zoom and consists of 2 live sessions with the facilitator and 2 sessions of self-paced learning. The self-paced learning will consist of a case study that persons will do on their own as 'home work" The course is highly interactive with demonstrations.

The live sessions (to be on Zoom) are scheduled for

• Monday, April 22, 2024 (live session) - 2 hours
• Tuesday, April 23, 2024 (self-paced) - 1 hour
• Wednesday, April 24, 2024 (self-paced) - 1 hour
• Thursday, April 25, 2024 (live session) - 2 hours
