About the programme

Dive into the world of Searching as Learning (SAL) and discover how Generative AI (GAI) is shaping the search-based learning experiences for Gen Z learners.

SAL is an emerging area in human-computer interaction (HCI) research, focusing on knowledge gained during online searches.

While traditional search systems have been studied for their role in supporting learning, recent advancements like generative AI (GAI) may disrupt this process.
