The CTL GenAI Sandbox

The Centre for Teaching and Learning is excited to launch a new bookable space in ADM 103H where instructors can explore and learn about Generative AI in a friendly, hands-on environment. Whether you’re just starting out or already experimenting with AI, we’re here to support you.

This space is designed to help you:

  • Learn what Generative AI is and how it works
  • Discover how it can support your teaching and save time
  • Ask questions and share concerns—no experience required

Most importantly you can request that one of our Support Analysts join you to answer your questions or guide you through using GenAI tools. We also have a powerful computer that is setup to let you try out AI tools safely and privately, without needing to share your data online. This means you can experiment with things like creating images, videos, or audio right on campus. Our goal is to create a welcoming space where you can explore AI at your own pace, without pressure or judgment.

Please book your time in advance on our website or email ctl.helpdesk@ubc.ca if you have any questions.
