Dr. Richard Medina

The first Flagship Forward session explores how to create custom AI chatbots using retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) for language learning—no coding required. We cover tools, design tips, and real-world examples to show how RAG can make chatbots more accurate, context-aware, and tailored to students’ professional language needs.
