Hands-On Hour

Hands-On Hours, or shortly HOHs, are 60-minute practical sessions dedicated to testing, evaluating, and discussing tools and databases for information, data, and AI literacy.

Each Hands-On Hour focuses on a specific topic and introduces one or two tools available to researchers at ETH Zurich. Following a brief introduction, participants work through hands-on exercises to explore the tools, evaluate their outputs, and discuss their strengths, limitations, and potential research applications. Participants are encouraged to bring their own research questions, datasets, publications, or other materials to apply the tools directly to their work.
