EdTech Sandbox Series: Build Your Own Teaching Bot – My Story of Creating CITE GPT as a Teaching Tool
This session will explore the design and use of CITE GPT, a custom AI (Artificial Intelligence) chatbot created as a project in the University of British Columbia (UBC) Master of Educational Technology ETEC 511 class, to support students and educators with academic writing, citation formatting, and ethical information use in a reflexive way. The aim of this session is to demystify the design process, showing our successes and failures, which may lead to participants being better informed or trying this skill themselves.

Conferences
There are many conferences you can attend virtually or in person. Clayton R. Wright maintains an excellent international conference list of Educational Technology & Education Conferences.
You'll want to exercise your own due diligence about which conferences you may want to attend or submit a paper to.
We suggest you assure yourself that the conference is legitimate by checking its website for credible information:
- dates and locations
- conference organizers
- conference sponsors
- fees
- submission dates
- editorial committee
- program and venue details
If you're not certain whether a conference is legitimate, consider using the Think, Check, Attend tool to confirm its academic credentials.
