The classroom is on the cusp of a transformation. Generative AI (GenAI) is emerging as a powerful tool, offering educators exciting new avenues to foster deeper engagement with learning. This workshop offers a demonstration of how GenAI can be harnessed to create an interactive, enquiry-driven learning environment.

We will explore the exciting potential of GenAI when combined with the Socratic Method, renowned for its emphasis on critical questioning, and show ways to simulate engaging dialogues that personalise the learning experience for each student.
