Using AI for qualitative analysis of teaching and learning datasets - TLC 2025
17 November 2025
14:00 - 16:00 GMT+2
Venue: 2A - Neville Alexander Building
Presenter(s): Stephen Marquard, Sukaina Walji & Francois Cilliers
This hands-on workshop will explore the opportunities and challenges of using machine learning and generative AI to assist in analysing, coding, classifying and summarizing qualitative data in different teaching and learning contexts. Such data could include written student feedback in course evaluations, responses to open survey questions, or reflections from students or staff. We’ll demonstrate applications of some of the tools available at UCT for qualitative analysis, including Explorance MLY, Google’s NotebookLM and Microsoft’s Copilot Chat.
To get the most out the workshop, bring along your own data set and a laptop, and if you’ve worked with AI-supported qualitative data analysis tools, we’d love you to show & tell.
