Leveraging AI Tools to Develop Team Competencies in Virtual International Hackathon - A Collaborative Case Study

In this interactive session, Dr. Elisabeth Dellegrazie (Concordia University Chicago) and Meredith Lancaster (BoodleBox) demonstrate an innovative approach to developing team competencies through AI-enhanced virtual international collaboration. Share the complete journey from initial concept through multiple implementation iterations, revealing surprising findings and outcomes that have fundamentally reshaped the understanding of AI's application and potential. These unexpected results will guide future developments and applications of this model in cross-cultural virtual collaboration. Participants will gain a month’s access to premium AI tools in BoodleBox to actively engage in a simulated experience mirroring a successful Slovenia-Argentina student hackathon. Discover how developing measurable cross-cultural competencies with AI in virtual team projects enhances student and professional skills.
