Under the theme “Dong Nai Students Mastering Digital Technology and Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Scientific Research,” students from Mien Dong Innovative Technology University and the Vietnam National University of Forestry – Dong Nai Campus in Trang Bom Commune explored the scientific research process in the era of digital technology and AI. They received guidance on selecting appropriate tools for each stage of the research process. Additionally, the speaker shared practical experience in presenting research topics and applying AI to communicate research findings effectively.

Participating students were also divided into groups to complete action plans for their research projects, covering goal setting, research questions, required data, proposed tools, timelines, and presentation formats. They also engaged in hands-on practice with digital and AI tools to search for materials, suggest chart formats, outline reports, and design the layout of scientific posters.
