Croeso Ambassador
This virtual exchange program connects primary teachers and pupils in Swansea, Wales, and Brno, Czechia. Through a collaborative learning journey, participants will design and create an AI-powered chatbot to serve as a multilingual virtual tour guide.
Teachers will receive specialized training on integrating AI into education, while pupils will develop digital skills by creating a library of multilingual tour guides showcasing Welsh sites. These guides, featured on the Croeso Ambassador website, will share stories of local history, culture, and cuisine, fostering pride in their communities.
