The workshop aimed to introduce students from all disciplines to the concept of workflow automation and provide hands-on experience with n8n, an open-source automation platform. Designed for beginners, the session required no prior technical knowledge, making it accessible to participants from diverse academic backgrounds. A total of 58 students attended the workshop, showing enthusiastic participation and interest.

The workshop emphasized practical learning through live demonstrations and guided hands-on activities. Participants were introduced to key functionalities of n8n and learned how to design and implement automated workflows by integrating tools such as Google Sheets, email services, and APIs. The facilitators provided step-by-step instructions, ensuring that all participants could follow along and actively engage in the exercises. This interactive approach helped students develop a clear understanding of how automation can simplify processes and solve real-world problems.

The workshop achieved its intended outcomes by enhancing participants’ knowledge and skills in workflow automation. Students gained hands-on experience in creating automated workflows and developed a better understanding of application integration. The session also increased awareness about the significance of automation across multiple sectors and promoted interdisciplinary learning. Participants demonstrated active engagement throughout the workshop and showed a strong interest in further exploring automation tools.
