The Canada-Nepal Forum for Research (CANEFOR) warmly invites teachers, students, and researchers to join our upcoming webinar on Effective Use of GenAI Tools for Teaching and Learning. This session is the first of CANEFOR’s Webinar Series on Contemporary Issues, designed to foster dialogue around transformative trends in education and research. CANEFOR aims to organize and facilitate three more Webinars on different themes by July 2026. 

Generative AI (GenAI) is reshaping classrooms by offering powerful tools for teaching, personalized learning, and student engagement. At the same time, it raises questions about ethics, integrity, and the future role of educators. This webinar will explore both opportunities and challenges, equipping participants with practical insights for meaningful use of GenAI in higher secondary education.
