Winter Quarter Workshops
Vibe Coding Sprint | Sponsored by v0
This workshop is a fast-paced sprint where students learn how to work with AI to turn messy ideas into a usable prototype. Students begin with a short scenario (their “case”) and use AI as a creative partner to design a deliverable that solves a realistic professional problem.
Participants practice judgment, storytelling, and decision-making as a team, focusing on what matters most rather than perfect polish. No technical or coding experience is required.
Each sprint introduces a new case, a new question, and a new way to test how AI can turn ideas into action. This sprint is supported by v0, giving students hands-on experience with the kinds of AI tools used to turn ideas into working products.

Prepare Your Interview Story Workshop
This workshop helps students turn everyday experiences into narratives that help them shine in interviews. In high-stakes moments, stories matter more than lists of skills. They make students memorable, show how they think, and reveal the value they bring to a team.
Students respond to real interview questions, receive feedback from peers and gesture mentors, and use AI as a creative partner to refine their stories.

What AI Exposes About Learning
In this episode, Kevin and Matt sit down with Professor Anis Bawarshi (UW English) to discuss AI in early career and learning. Anis introduces the distinction between “knowing how,” “knowing that,” and “knowing with,” and how these metacognitive skills help students adapt learning across contexts and use AI effectively.
