We will also talk about Chat GPT, Microsoft Co-pilot and other AI tools, what they do and how to think through using them (or not).

Meet with fellow learners on Zoom and learn how to use Zotero to create your own database of citations, PDFs, images, webpages, video and audio files and more.  Zotero can then be used to create citations in a large number of citation styles which can be added to Google Docs, Microsoft Word and Libre Office.  We will send a zoom link to students who are registered the day before the workshop.
