tools, enabling participants to adopt
more structured and learner-centric evaluation strategies.
A key highlight was the introduction to AI-driven teaching-learning tools, including
chatbots and AR-VR applications,
along with insightful discussions on the ethical use of Artificial Intelligence in
academic content creation and
research, led by Sh. Gaurav Kumar.
