Poster Competition: International Conference Re-thinking Education in the Age of AI
22-23 November, 2023 | Chitkara University, Punjab
The Poster Competition will be held on the second day, i.e., on 23rd November 2023, of the Conference at the campus of Chitkara University, Punjab.
The main goal of the conference is to debate the socio-economic impacts of robotics and artificial intelligence (AI), assessing how international cooperation and education can support the readaptation of society to technological developments. As observed during the previous industrial revolutions, technological developments are likely to revolutionize the skills demanded by the labour market. Workers will be asked to perform tasks requiring analytical, creative and critical skills, while the routinary work will be assigned to devices governed by artificial intelligence.
The competition is open to students enrolled in secondary schools and higher education institutions. Participants are invited to present their poster illustrating their vision of The Future of Education. Their work should provide a picture of how education will re-adapt to technological developments and society’s mutation. The posters should be based on scientific studies and their creative vision.
The main aim of creators should be to showcase how technological and societal development will be embraced (and will transform) schools and/or universities.
The creator(s) of the best poster will be awarded with a cash prize of INR 40,000 during the valedictory ceremony of the International Conference. In addition, attractive awards will be assigned to the students showcasing outstanding and out-of-the-box ideas. The poster competition will be chaired by an International Jury comprising European and Indian Educators.
