Wireless Hacking with Microcontrollers

This workshop will introduce participants to wireless hacking using microcontrollers, employing techniques such as: spectrum analysis, fake Access Point (AP), fake channel hopping AP, MAC flooding attack, DHCP starvation attack, and more, using MicroPython. During the tutorial, we will examine Wi-Fi vulnerabilities and work with Open-Source applications. Additionally, we will set up cost-effective Open-Source hardware and execute attack vectors using microcontrollers. 

Requirements to attend this workshop:  

  • Web Browser 
  • MicroPython. 
  • Mu y/o Thonny.

Dynamic Community Detection in Social Networks

This workshop provides an in-depth look into techniques for detecting dynamic communities in social networks, addressing the evolution and interaction within online communities. Challenges presented by dynamic networks are analyzed, and both traditional and cutting-edge methods for community detection are explored, such as modularity optimization and Bayesian inference. Additionally, evaluation metrics and visualization techniques are discussed to understand the evolution of communities. Through case studies on real social platforms, participants will gain practical knowledge. By the end, attendees will comprehend dynamic community detection and will be able to apply these techniques in their research or applications.

Introduction to cloud computing and machine learning with Google Earth Engine (GEE) to obtain land use and land cover maps, using the MapBiomas methodology

The workshop will address the integration of BigData, IoT, and cloud processing within Google Earth Engine (GEE), an innovative tool for rapid and extensive geospatial analyses. Participants will learn about GIS programming in GEE, satellite remote sensing, and the MapBiomas methodology which utilizes machine learning, such as Random Forest, to generate annual land use and cover maps from 1985 to 2022. A hands-on session with the interactive MapBiomas platform will be highlighted, catering to both general and specialized audiences, showcasing geospatial analyses that are freely accessible and globally comparable. 

Requirements to attend the tutorial:  

  • An active Google Earth Engine account

Research 4.0: Digital technology for scientific dissemination and editorial management

The workshop “Research 4.0: digital technology for scientific research” will discuss the incorporation of modern technologies, especially Artificial Intelligence (AI), in editorial management and publication of scientific research. It will highlight how AI, through various tools and platforms, will improve editorial efficiency, facilitating review, plagiarism detection, and coherent presentation of publications. A debate will be encouraged on the ethical challenges and the future of AI in scientific editing. The importance of scientific journals, particularly using Open Journal Systems, as a primary medium for dissemination will be emphasized. Additionally, multimedia techniques will be presented to enhance the dissemination and presentation of articles in different formats and platforms.

Prerequisites to participate in this tutorial:  

  • Teachers and students interested in using technological devices in their classes.

  • Motivated teachers to apply engaging resources for interactive learning.

Learning Analytics and Artificial Intelligence: Opportunities and Hazards

The use of Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence algorithms is not new in education or in Learning Analytics. However, recent advances in generative models, such as massive language models (LLMs), have radically transformed the potential applications of these technologies. In this talk, we will explore the various ways in which generative models, whether in text, images or audio, can be used to create Learning Analytics tools that foster deliberate practice, reflection, self-regulation and creativity in both students and teachers. Likewise, we will also visit possible dystopias resulting from an inadequate application of these models in the educational field.

In this talk we will also evaluate technical (What is possible?), pedagogical (What is beneficial for learning?), and ethical (What is beneficial for the individual and society?) issues. While this talk will not provide definitive answers to these last two questions, it will offer guidelines that each individual can use to address them in his or her own research and teaching practice.

The University in an AI-driven World

In recent months there has been frenetic activity in the development of Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based tools. Especially due to recent developments in generative AI and the popularization of this term and specific tools in the media and social networks. These tools affect multiple sectors and higher education is definitely one of them.

Content generation, student support, assessment and certification of knowledgecompetencies, and also research in education are strongly impacted by these new tools. Universities must modify their structures and processes to cope with these new changes, without forgetting the adequate training of teaching staff and taking into account the ethical aspects related to the use of AI-based tools. This talk collects some of the most recent advances in this field, which is evolving at a great speed.
