AI Research Assistants Disrupting Information Discovery  DESCRIPTION:The 51 Libraries invite you to a discussion in which we will examine emerging AI research tools\, their benefits\, and shortcomings from viewpoints of information content providers\, librarians\, and users. \nMany academic content providers\, including JSTOR\, are developing AI Research Assistants to improve the search experience for reliable scholarly sources and deliver more relevant results. Join us for presentations by a representative from JSTOR and two 51 faculty researchers to gain insight into current and potential strategies for literature searching and information evaluation by leveraging the “AI Research Assistant” technology. \nSpeakers \n\nJane Hetherington\, JSTOR Regional Director\, Western US and Canada\nPhilip Chang\, 51\, Physics\, Professor and Department Chair\nBob Beck\, 51\, Political Science\, Associate Professor\n\nLearn new tricks and enjoy spooky treats! \nDate: October 30\, 2024\nTime: 2-3:30pm\nVenue: Fourth Floor Conference Center\, Golda Meir Library \nRegistration: https://forms.office.com/r/e5MFX03MYt \nIf you have any questions about the event\, please contact Kate Ganski (ganski@uwm.edu). \n  URL:/libraries/event/ai-research-assistants/ LOCATION:Fourth Floor Conference Center\, Golda Meir Library CATEGORIES:Faculty and Staff,Front Page Event,Lectures Conferences and Symposiums X-TRIBE-STATUS: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20241030T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20241030T210000 DTSTAMP:20260423T100021 CREATED:20240708T190053Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240708T191323Z UID:10000166-1730314800-1730322000@uwm.edu SUMMARY:Great Books Virtual Roundtable Discussion: J. Hector St. John de Crèvecœur\, Letters from an American Farmer  DESCRIPTION:J. Hector St. John de Crèvecœur\nSelected Letters from an American Farmer (1782)\nLetters I\, III\, IX\, XII \nNo expertise or prerequisites are required. We only ask that you read the selected texts. \nINSTRUCTIONS FOR THE ZOOM SESSION \nIf you think you will be attending the session\, please send Max Yela an email (maxyela@uwm.edu) about your intention to attend (even if you decide not to attend later). He will accept notices of intent until 5:00 p.m.\, Oct. 30. Between 6:30 and 6:45 on the day of our discussion\, Oct. 30\, you will receive an email from him with an automatic password-protected URL. Please use that URL to join the session (you will of course need to use a computer with a microphone and a video camera in it — if you want to be seen\, that is). When you join\, you will be placed in a waiting room that Max will be monitoring to allow attendees into the session. Only those he has emailed will be allowed into the session. This process is intended to maximize the security of the meeting. \nThese discussions are free and open to the public. \nPart of the purpose of the Great Books Roundtable Discussions is to illustrate the pedagogical method of shared inquiry. Another purpose is to disseminate an understanding and appreciation of the philosophy of great books education on the 51 campus. It was the assertion of the former Great Books Program that its methodology and philosophical approach toward the study of foreign languages\, mathematics\, history\, and great books offers a challenging\, meaningful\, and useful Liberal Arts education. \nSpecial Collections serves as host for the Roundtable Discussions in support of these educational goals. Special Collections’ programs\, services\, and policy of free\, open\, and equal access to all its collections have close affinities to the former Great Books Program’s vision of a vigorous Liberal Arts education and its method of shared inquiry. \nMore information on the program can be found on the Special Collections Great Books Roundtable Discussions webpage.
