SUMMARY:Online Dexterity—Applications for Enhancing Teachers’ and Students’ Competence and Confidence in Online Spaces in Tertiary Art and Design Education
DESCRIPTION:Digital tools and artificial intelligence are disrupting and transforming pedagogies in higher art and design institutions. In this session\, we introduce research that advances the notion of ‘online dexterity\,’ framing the technological proficiency of university educators and students not as fixed abilities but as immediate\, flexible responses to the evolving landscape of online learning. Utilising phenomenology and grounded theory research methods to examine the experiences of 55 university teachers and students\, we chart the strategic adjustments that constitute their online dexterity. In this session\, we encourage participants to discuss potentially integrating these practices into the higher education sphere of art and design. \nPresenters: \n\nJoyce Hwee Ling Koh\, Professor of Learning Design and Technologies (University of Otago)\n\nSession type: Paper \nTime listed is Singapore time.

SUMMARY:Extending the Visual Storytelling Narrative Arc through Augmented Reality
DESCRIPTION:Note: Session time is listed in BST. Check your local time zone. \nNew digital tools and tactics such as augmented reality offer the potential to create new “hybrid” student outcomes. This project-based case study is from an experimental “Visual Storytelling” design elective within a public university School of Design. The experimental class format allowed for the introduction of new curricular methods and strategies\, including new tools and platforms for project outcomes. In this case study\, an augmented reality extension of a more traditional design project outcome activated student curiosity and experimentation. Hybrid and multimodal methods of visual storytelling bridging print and screen-based experience design increase user engagement with the designed outcome. \nPresenter: Ellen Christensen\, Assistant Professor of Visual Communication Design (San Francisco State University) \nSession type: Case Study

SUMMARY:AI Use in Contemporary Artists’ Practices: Implications for Art Education
DESCRIPTION:Note: Session time is listed in BST. Check your local time zone. \nArtificial Intelligence (AI) has recently been continuously debated\, as creating AI-generated art pieces has become more common in our daily lives; however\, we argue that art educators are not yet prepared for this change. In this paper\, we shed light on the implications of the work of contemporary artists who incorporate AI technologies into their practices\, for today’s art education. We highlight the work of Patrick Tresset\, Shinseungback Kimyonghun\, and Es Devlin. Constantly seeking artistic possibilities in playful ways\, these artists focus on intuitive processes\, maintaining and developing their artistic curiosity and critical thinking\, rather than on technologies themselves. \nPresenters: \n\nDr. Borim Song\, Associate Professor (East Carolina University)\nDr. Ahran Koo\, Associate Professor (California State University\, Fresno)\n\nSession type: Paper

SUMMARY:Shaping Inclusive Futures of Immersive Technology: Interdisciplinary Collaborative Design for People with Disabilities
DESCRIPTION:Note: Session time is listed in BST. Check your local time zone. \nImmersive technology has the potential to transform digital education and support people with disabilities\, but limitations can prevent many users from accessing these technologies. Our presentation will showcase collaborative immersive projects implemented through the Innovation X program. Students from arts\, engineering\, special education\, and the Aggie ACHIEVE program worked together over two semesters to create projects that explored opportunities for people with disabilities. Our case study aims to promote inclusive design practices that empower people with disabilities to engage with immersive technology\, while also helping students become more inclusive and collaborative individuals in the design process. \nPresenters: \n\nJinsil Seo\, Associate Professor (Texas A&M University)\nCaleb Kicklighter\, Instructional Assistant Professor (Texas A&M University)\nPaule Taele\, Instructional Assistant Professor (Texas A&M University)\n\nSession type: Case Study

SUMMARY:Teaching AI as a Creative Medium to Interdisciplinary Art and Design Students
DESCRIPTION:Note: Session time is listed in BST. Check your local time zone. \nIs artificial intelligence (AI) making students less creative? Educators are debating the roles of AI in the classroom as students embrace generative tools like ChatGPT and Midjourney. In this session\, the presenters will share their pedagogical experience on how they integrated this new technology into the classroom while it was emerging week by week. They will argue for the importance of interrogation of the tools. Having a basic understanding of how the databases are built allowed the students to comprehend their inherent bias and misinformation. Iterative in-class design critiques helped them reflect upon the derivative nature of AI-generated work and how these tools redefine what it means to be creative. \nPresenters: \n\nJeongki Lim\, Assistant Professor (Parsons School of Design\, The New School)\nMark Randall\, Associate Dean of School of Design Strategies (Parsons School of Design\, The New School)\n\nSession type: Case Study

SUMMARY:Open spaces: Designing a culture of sharing in creative online environments
DESCRIPTION:Note: Session time is listed in BST. Check your local time zone. \nCreative education needs ways to explore ideas dynamically that encourage learning communities’ development in a studio environment. In the standard (design) studio model\, in-person (IP) learning fosters a culture of sharing (CoS) as students and faculty engage in a multi-direction dialog via desk crits\, class pinups\, and final reviews. The OL studio\, however\, doesn’t share this opportunity. The class and pedagogy are designed to maintain visual and curricular consistency\, hindering dynamic conversations and tangential explorations that IP students enjoy. In turn\, this creates an inequitable learning experience. This discussion workshop will explore ways online creative pedagogy might be redesigned to encourage CoSs. \nPresenter: Samantha Perkins\, Clinical Professor + Assistant Director of Learner Experience and Learning Enterprise (Arizona State University) \nSession type: DYO

SUMMARY:Researching AI Generative Platforms with Human Computation: A Method
DESCRIPTION:Note: Session time is listed in BST. Check your local time zone. \nDeveloping methods to conduct research in the fast evolving field of AI generative platforms may become an arms race of machine learning which may possibly lose the essence of qualitative forms of knowing and perceiving nuanced relationships. This DYO session is intended to demonstrate and reflect on a new method for gathering data using group settings and human computation. \nPresenter: Dr. Aaron Knochel\, Associate Professor of Art Education (Penn State) \nSession type: DYO

SUMMARY:Generative Machine Learning as a Speculative Design Toolkit for Climate Education
DESCRIPTION:Note: Session time is listed in BST. Check your local time zone. \nTeaching climate change outcomes can be difficult due to deeply ingrained political viewpoints. Education can often evolve into debates instead of providing information. Instead\, process-based methods like storytelling and games can promote climate education by motivating students to engage in speculative future scenario imagining. This work describes a workshop applying generative machine learning tools to allow students to imagine future climate scenarios and come up with potential solution to climate crises. Participants used Stable Diffusion and Midjourney to envision climate futures\, and ChatGPT to suggest climate solutions. This approach uses AI as a speculative design tool to promote engagement for future climate thinking. \nPresenter: Ray LC\, Assistant Professor (City University of Hong Kong) \nSession type: Case Study

SUMMARY:Undoing Algorithmic Teaching Topographies
DESCRIPTION:Note: Session time is listed in BST. Check your local time zone. \nReversing gravitational pulls of in-person teaching toward multidirectional fluid teaching topographies of embodied texture-mapped immersive learning environments\, we sought to undo the finite sequence of rigorous instructions inherent in most algorithmic learning environments. Rather than hoping new tech tools will dismantle the entrenched normative of the patriarchal house\, students build experiential knowledge together with emphasis on lived experiences that raise questions about dominant narratives surrounding gender\, sexuality\, home\, family\, and belonging. \nPresenter: \n\nKaren Keifer-Boyd\, Professor of Art Education & Women’s\, Gender\, and Sexuality Studies (Penn State)\nMaggie-Rose Condit-Summerson\, Doctoral Candidate (Penn State)\nJohn Summerson\, Animation Director and Educator (Penn State)\n\nSession type: Panel

SUMMARY:Pedagogy in public: virtual interfaces as the new agora
DESCRIPTION:Note: Session time is listed in BST. Check your local time zone. \nDuring the pandemic\, platforms like Minecraft and Instagram became complex spaces for both play and pedagogy. Discourse tends to focus on interaction and the ability to communicate to broad audiences; however\, they have also enabled a shift of pedagogy out of private institutional spaces and into the public realm. I argue that these spaces function as a new iteration of the ancient Athenian agora\, where philosophers like Socrates and Aristotle famously met with students in the public marketplace. In public space\, these teachings cannot be confined to the student and teacher—instead\, teaching and learning are opened up to the flow of daily life and passers by\, who may choose to participate in\, or disrupt\, the proceedings. \nPresenter: Melanie Wilmink\, Banting Postdoctoral Researcher (Yonsei University) \nSession type: Case Study
