Conference Abstract:
This conference will look at different ways to make knowledge translation (KT) more effective and impactful. We seek presentations that will discuss how to measure the success of KT efforts, including involving users early on, working with people with disabilities, and customizing products and outreach to meet user needs. We'll also look for presentations that talk about sharing KT content online, ensuring it's credible, teaching digital literacy, spotting false information, and making sure disability is represented accurately. In addition, we encourage presentations that explore how technology can boost KT projects, such as using digital tools to build online communities, check text readability, and summarize research. We also welcome presentations that highlight the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in creating easy-to-understand summaries, organizing research, addressing AI bias, and writing effective prompts. Join us to discover new strategies and tools to enhance your KT efforts.
