SUMMARY:“AI ayayay! A conversation on Teaching and ChatGPT”
DESCRIPTION:WHAT IS ChatGPT? You may have encountered it but not sure exactly what it means\, pertains to\, and how it could potentially affect you as a member of the academe.\n\nWe are pleased to invite you to this timely discussion on ChatGPT\, an online artificial intelligence chatbot. The Office for the Advancement of Teaching is holding\, “AI ayayay! A conversation on Teaching and ChatGPT”\, on February 13 (Monday)\, 9-11AM.\n\nThe format will be an online roundtable discussion where a moderator will pose key questions to invited discussants and gather insights from the audience. The goal is to come up with a collective response to ChatGPT instead of leaving our faculty to deal with the matter individually. The event is free of charge and open to the public.\n\nThe online discussion will be held on Zoom. Interested participants can register here: http://bit.ly/AIchatGPT.\n\nPANELISTS:\nVPAA Cynthia Bautista\nVCAA Tess Payongayong\nDr. Rex Jalao (Director of UPD’s Artificial Intelligence Program\nDr. Bomen Guillermo (Professor\, Center for International Studies)\n\n—-\n\nAs the new semester commences\, both faculty members and students are faced with the challenge of how to navigate the potential disruptions that ChatGPT\, an online artificial intelligence chatbot\, may cause in higher education. Social media posts and think pieces have raised concerns regarding its ethicality\, the threats it poses to authentic assessment\, and the burdens it may induce on teachers. Some\, on the other hand\, are excited with the possibilities of this tool. But what do we do with ChatGPT? Dapat nga ba itong katakutan? Dedmahin? Bigyan ng chance?\n\nIn the spirit of building communities of practice and kick-starting a university-wide conversation on ChatGPT’s perils and promises\, the Office for the Advancement of Teaching is holding\, “AI ayayay! A conversation on Teaching and ChatGPT”\, on February 13 (Monday)\, 9-11AM.\n\nZoom slots are limited but the event will also be streamed live on OAT’s Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/oat.upd) and YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/@officefortheadvancementoft3434).\n\nTogether\, we will try to answer questions like: What makes ChatGPT “intelligent?” Are we ready to face the consequences of this tool?

JOSE\nHead\, Expanded Education and Training Office\nUP Philippine General Hospital\n\n———————————————————–\n\nWebinar #133\nFebruary 10\, 2023\nCOVID-19 Bivalent Vaccine Boosters: Kailan nga ba ito?\n\nHave you received a COVID-19 booster? As the virus continues to mutate\, boosters are increasingly important in ensuring that populations are protected from outbreaks. Health workers in particular\, need to be protected through vaccination.\n\nVaccines for the COVID-19 pandemic using mRNA promised easier formulation or “tweaking” to keep in pace with a rapidly mutating virus.\n\nIn late 2022\, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) authorized—and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommended—two updated boosters. The boosters target two Omicron subvariants\, BA.4 and BA.5. The new booster is a bivalent vaccine\, which means it contains two messenger RNA (mRNA) components of the coronavirus. Half of the vaccine targets the original strain\, and the other half targets the BA.4 and BA.5 Omicron subvariant lineages.\n\nWhat do we know about the effectiveness and efficacy of the bivalent vaccines of Moderna and Pfizer? How frequently should health workers be given a booster? Are the monovalent vaccines effective against the new variants of Omicron?\n\nIn this episode of STOP COVID DEATHS\, Dr. Razel Nikka Hao from the Department of Health will share the latest data on booster rates according to region and age. An update will be provided on the inclusion of bivalent vaccines in the vaccination program\, particularly for health workers. Dr. Maria Ofelia Ocana-Alcantara\, former Mayor of the Municipality of Tolosa\, Leyte will reflect on the role of LGUs in strengthening the booster program of the government. Synthesis and Closing Remarks will be delivered by Dr. Stella Marie L. Jose\, Head of Expanded Education and Research Office at the UP Philippine General Hospital.\n\nJoin us to stay updated with the latest news on control of COVID-19 through your credible on-line community. Together\, we can Stop C.O.V.I.D. Deaths!
