Effective use of chat-based AI tools est. 60 - 90 min 💡 After this training: The learner is able to understand the basics of artificial intelligence The learner is able to explain how artificial intelligence can be used in personal and professional life. 👀 How to coordinate this training: Explanation of AI You can start from the introductory explanation using the training page from Getting started with technology > What is Artificial Intelligence (AI)? Exercise Let's watch the video together or independently. Disscussion Let's discuss together. Guiding questions: Have you used chat-based AI before? What was your experience? How do you think AI could help in your current work or daily tasks? What concerns do you have about using AI (e.g. privacy, misinformation) Discuss also the ethical considerations of AI: Should you double-check AI-generated content before using it in work documents? Why or why not? Should you tell someone you used AI to write an email? Is it safe to enter private or client-related information into AI tools like ChatGPT or Gemini? Demonstration Use the demonstration tips to demonstration how chat-based AI works. Exercise Let's do the exercise together and discuss the answers. Learners try using AI tools (ChatGPT, Gemini, etc.) If needed, start by making an account Practice giving different types of prompts Share results and discuss improvements Materials needed: Computer 💻 Access to chat-based AI like ChatGPT, Gemini 🧑🏽💻 ✨ Digital skills training about chat-based AI video language 🇬🇧 Please note that this video is from 2023. Explanation Tips 💡 1. Types of AI Models Generative AI – creates text, images, videos (e.g., ChatGPT, DALL·E) Conversational AI – chats and responds (e.g., ChatGPT, Claude) Search-Integrated AI – mixes search + AI (e.g., Perplexity, Bing Copilot) 2. Core Capabilities Natural Language Processing (NLP) Helps AI understand and generate human language – used in chatbots, translation tools, and writing assistants. Image & Speech Recognition Allows AI to identify objects in photos or understand spoken words – used in voice assistants, photo apps, and security tools. Predictive Analytics Uses data to predict future trends or behaviors – helpful in finance, health, marketing, etc. Content Generation Enables AI to create new content – like writing text, designing images, or making videos. 3. Popular AI Tools & Platforms Text : ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude Image : DALL·E, MidJourney, Pixlr, DeepAI Video : InVideo AI, HeyGen, RunwayML Summarization : YouTube video summarizers Multi-Modal : Tools that handle text + image + document input 4. How AI is Used in Daily Life and Work Life Email drafting Resume and cover letter writing Budgeting and contracts Visual design for social media Language translation and proofreading Accessibility (e.g., reading PDFs aloud) 5. Ethical Use & Data Privacy Bias & Fairness : AI can reflect or even amplify human biases present in training data. Always review outputs critically. Data Privacy : Avoid sharing sensitive personal or organizational information (e.g., ID numbers, medical records, confidential work data) when using AI tools. Transparency : Remember that AI doesn’t “know” but generates responses based on patterns; verify important facts from trusted sources. Accountability : Use AI as a support tool, not a final decision-maker, especially in hiring, finance, or legal matters. 6. How AI Understands Input (Prompting) AI doesn’t “think”; it generates based on your prompt. The more structured and specific your prompt, the better the results. Demonstration Tips & Prompt Examples ✍️ Use these scenarios to demonstrate practical applications of AI with ready-made prompt templates. Writing emails 📧 Scenario : Thanking a participant Prompt : “Write a warm thank-you email to someone who attended our workshop on effective AI use.” Scenario : Writing a meeting rescheduling Prompt : “I'm a meeting organizer, but I need to reschedule the date and time. I want to notify participants about this. Write a polite and constructive email.” 2. Responding to emails 📨 Scenario : Accepting participation to an event Prompt : “Write a positive reply to an event on December 7th.” 3. Rewriting for clarity 🔁 Scenario : You’ve written rough notes and want them improved Prompt : “Rewrite this information clearly and professionally.” 4. Getting AI to ask questions first ❓ Scenario : You want to open a café but don’t know where to start Prompt : “I want to open a café. Before suggesting steps, ask me questions about location, target audience, budget, and menu preferences.” Scenario : You want to organize a team building day for your colleagues (10 people) Prompt : “I want to organize a team building day for 10 colleagues. Before suggesting steps, ask me questions about location, target audience, budget, and menu preferences.” Exercise examples 💻 1. Email writing assistant Goal: Learn how chat-based AI helps write and respond to emails. Activity: Use prompts like: “Write a warm thank-you email to someone who attended our workshop.” “Reply to an invitation to an event positively.” Learners test both formal and informal styles using the same prompt. 2. Rewrite and improve Goal: See how AI can clarify or improve rough writing. Activity: Give learners a messy paragraph or handwritten notes. Prompt: “Rewrite this clearly and professionally.” Discuss what was improved and why. 3. AI as a thinking partner Goal: Use AI to ask the right questions before giving answers. Scenarios: “ I want to open a café. Ask me questions before giving advice.” “I want to organize a team-building day for my colleagues.” Learners compare the questions AI asks and decide if they’re helpful. 4. Everyday task helper Goal: Explore daily-life uses of chat-based AI. Activity: Assign tasks like: Planning a weekly task Translating and proofreading a message Creating a to-do list for a small event Learners share creative or unexpected uses they discovered. 5. Work-Life simulation Goal: Practice using AI in professional scenarios. Choose one role-based activity: “Write an email inviting colleagues to a brainstorming meeting.” “Create a pricing template for social media services.” Learners compare AI responses and edit them for accuracy or tone. 👋🏽 Join the Community Ideas on how to create better training?

The learner can use the most common digital devices, their basic functions, and adjust settings. 👀 How to coordinate this training: Getting familiar with the parts of computers Together, we identify the different parts of the device and think about what they are used for. The trainer asks about each part of the computer separately using a vocabulary list, such as where the power button is. Each person looks for the corresponding part on their own computer. The trainer will also show each part on their own computer at the end. At the same time, they discuss the various components of the computer and their functions. As an option, watch the video in the group and then go through each vocabulary together. Discussion and exercise Next, work in pairs to find out the answers to the following questions: What percentage is your battery charged right now? How long does your computer battery usually last? How do you turn the sound down on your device? Depending on the learners' level, you can continue with these exploratory questions: Do you know how to use the mouse? What is the difference between the left and right button? Can you show where the spacebar, enter key, shift key, and caps lock are on your keyboard? What do they do? Where is the power button on your computer? What happens when you press it? Can you find and name the ports on your computer? Which ones are USB or HDMI? Do you know where to plug in headphones? Have you used it before? Keyboard exercise The materials below include activities to help learners practice using a keyboard.

What is Artificial Intelligence (AI)? est. 45 min 💡 After this training: The learner is able to understand the basics of AI. The learner can identify where AI is used in daily life. 👀 How to coordinate this training: 1. Watch the video together or independently 2. Discussion with supporting questions in a group or pair Starter Questions: Which of the AI examples in the video have you used before? Can you find 3 apps on your phone that probably use AI? Were you surprised that AI is used in so many places? Do you feel more curious or more nervous about AI after this video? Can you think of a task in your daily life that AI might help with? Questions for Deeper Engagement: Would you trust AI to help you make a big decision? Why or why not? What is one way AI might make life easier for you? Is there a type of AI use that you find uncomfortable or strange? Check tips for facilitating the discussions. Demonstrate examples or ask learners to test out tools in a group Check the list of examples you can try to demonstrate, or give these as a task for each group. Materials needed: 💻 Computer 📲 Mobile phone ✨ Digital skills training about AI basics video language 🇬🇧 Tips for discussions: Where Do We See AI in Everyday Life? 📱 Examples: Your phone suggests words as you type You get movie or music recommendations You talk to Siri, Google Assistant You use Google Maps or Waze You translate languages on the web Instagram or TikTok shows you what you like You unlock your phone with face recognition Demonstration examples 💬 Use ChatGPT or Gemini (Text AI) Task: “What are three cheap and healthy recipes I can cook this week?” → Observe the reply. Was it helpful? Would you ask more? I’m going to a job interview. Can you help me prepare?” → Observe the reply. Was it helpful? Would you ask more? 2. Try a Text-to-Image Tool Use any tools you are familiar with or tools like Pixlr AI Generator or Bing Image Creator. Task: Type: “A woman working on a laptop in a cozy café in winter.” → Discuss: Does it match your imagination? What else would you try? Ask learners to suggest a few words and see what kind of image would be generated. → Discuss: Does it match your imagination? Describe what you see in the current moment and type that description. → Discuss: Does it match your imagination? What else would you try? Example outputs from ChatGPT 3. Use Voice Input with Google Assistant or Siri Task: Say: “Remind me to drink water in 10 minutes” → Discuss: Was this easier than typing? Say: "Can you set a timer for 30 seconds?" → Discuss: Was this easier than typing? What else would you ask? Resources and tips for deeper engagements video language 🇬🇧 Benefits: Saves time (e.g., writing help, navigation, voice-to-text) Improves accessibility (e.g., screen readers, translation) Helps in education, healthcare, and work Risks and Concerns: Loss of privacy or data misuse: When you use an AI-powered app like a face filter, a language translation app, or a smart assistant, it may collect your voice, photos, or location without you fully realizing it. That data could be stored for a long time, shared with other companies, or even sold. Bias in AI decisions (e.g., hiring, facial recognition): AI can treat people unfairly if it's trained on biased data. For example, an AI used to screen job applications may reject qualified candidates just because their name or background doesn’t match what the system thinks a good candidate looks like. Misinformation (e.g., fake images or voices): AI can create fake content that looks or sounds very real, like a video of a celebrity or a politician saying something they never said, or a fake voice message that sounds like a family member. These can be used to confuse, manipulate, or scam people. 👋🏽 Join the Community Ideas on how to create better training? Would you like to share how your training went?
