Join us on Wed., July 24 at noon for a captivating talk by Dr. Jim Karagatzides on the intricate relationship between oak trees and pine growth in the Wasaga Beach sand dunes.

In the late 1980s, Michelle Kading (MSc 1987, York U.) conducted research on tree growth in Wasaga Beach. Her findings revealed that pine trees thrived significantly better under the canopy of oak trees compared to treeless areas, thanks to the support of these "nurse trees." Nearly 40 years later, Dr. Karagatzides found Michelle's oak trees and will share insights on whether this beneficial effect persists, especially in the face of a warming climate.

Don't miss this opportunity to delve into decades of ecological discovery and understand how these findings shape our understanding of local ecosystems today.

โœจ COLLABORATION SPOTLIGHT โœจ

Teena Sauve was attending a conference when she heard about the innovative AI work being done at Georgian.

As the owner of Botree, a digital-first training company, Teena was interested in the potential opportunities to engage with Georgian to optimize processes and support her growing company.

Teena reached out to Georgian and our Digital Research Initiative (DRI), which facilitates streamlined connections between digital projects and student resources, fostering meaningful learning opportunities. These discussions sparked a collaborative opportunity, culminating in the development of an exciting capstone project for our students.

At Georgian, capstone projects are woven into our curriculum, offering students opportunities to apply their academic knowledge to real-world challenges and innovate solutions for businesses and community. These projects enhance students' skills and readiness for the workforce through this valuable experiential learning.

With the support of Georgian's Research and Innovation staff and the leadership of our academic experts, these enthusiastic students addressed the clientโ€™s needs by working together to develop a prototype of an AI tool. This prototype optimizes instructional design processes for greater efficiency and applies Botree's proprietary Level Up learning framework at scale through the power of AI; a solution aiming to enhance curriculum development and improve learning outcomes for Botreeโ€™s clients in a cost-effective manner.

"Working with the team at Georgian has allowed us to expand our dream of transforming workplace education to new realities. Our entire team is energized and excited by the idea of making the skills required for the future of work accessible to more people. Our mission to be leaders in digital-first education feels closer than ever!" - Teena Sauve

Congratulations to our students and faculty for their hard work on this prototype. A special thanks to Teena and the Botree team for the opportunity to collaborate on this innovative project!
