Talk Title: Impacting Higher Education to Drive Societal Change: Leveraging MATLAB and AI for Enhanced Teaching

Abstract:

Engineers are essential to addressing the grand challenges of the 21st century. As technology becomes increasingly embedded in society, individuals in technical fields will engage in social debates to ensure the responsible use of technologies. In this context, higher education  will play a key role in shaping the next generation of engineering leaders. Dynamic environments like MATLAB can serve as a playground where engineering students can build transversal skills.

In this talk, you will explore the latest MATLAB teaching tools available, along with best practices for integrating Generative AI into engineering education, like academic integrity, development of instructional content and student assessments.
