SUMMARY:Education and Ethics of AI
DESCRIPTION:It’s either the next big thing in education – or the greatest threat to our profession we’ve ever seen. Whatever your opinion of AI\, there’s no denying its popularity in the classroom. A recent Walton Family Foundation survey of 2\,000 K-12 students found more than one in five of them are already using ChatGPT to help with coursework at least once a week. Nearly double the amount of teachers said they’re using it on a weekly basis if not more. But there’s much more to AI than just ChatGPT. This session will look at how ChatGPT and other AI generative tools can be used across disciplines and teaching styles – ethically and responsibly.\n\nPresenters: \nDale Blasingame (Associate Professor of Practice\, Texas State University)\nJon Zmikly (Senior Lecturer\, Texas State University) \nSign up now

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

SUMMARY:Magic in the classroom: Labor\, Delight\, and A.I.
DESCRIPTION:Note: Session time is listed in BST. Check your local time zone. \nGenerative A.I. apps have embraced ✨sparkles✨ and references to magic in their branding and user interfaces. The idea of magic has long been entangled with technology and the arts. Are massive neural networks “indistinguishable from magic\,” to quote Arthur C. Clarke\, making creative software even more like a black box? Or\, as selected new media art suggests\, can magic be an elixir for schools and economies obsessed with efficiency? Can automation unlock time for more deeply human work? \nParticipants will be invited into a summoning circle to share their experiences with magic in the classroom (artificial or not)\, and to discuss the value of labor in the age of automation and magic buttons. \nPresenter: Benjamin Andrew\, Assistant Teaching Professor (Penn State) \nSession type: DYO

SUMMARY:Inclusive Art Critique
DESCRIPTION:Note: Session time is listed in BST. Check your local time zone. \nArt critique has long been a central practice in the art and design world\, serving as a means for artists and designers to receive feedback on their work and for critics to analyze and evaluate. However\, traditional art critiquing methods have often been exclusive\, biased\, and Eurocentric. As society progresses and strives toward greater inclusivity and diversity\, it is crucial to extinguish past art-critiquing ways and adopt new\, more inclusive methodologies. \nPresenter: Dannell Macllwraith\, Assistant Professor (Kutztown University) \nSession type: Paper

SUMMARY:The Near Future of Iterative Design and Visual Representation: A Personal Journey with AI and XR
DESCRIPTION:Note: Session time is listed in BST. Check your local time zone. \nExtended Reality and Generative AI are revolutionizing the way designers learn\, practice\, and teach design\, creating new realities and adding challenges to conventional notions. The Iterative Process and Visual Representation have always been fundamental to the design\, but the technological developments of XR and AI are transforming these core elements. Today\, designers must adapt and incorporate these technologies to remain competitive and innovative. This session will explore the impact of XR and AI on iterative design processes and visual representation in design education\, and provide insights from an architectural designer who has been actively involved in the study\, practice\, and pedagogy of architectural design in the last decade. \nPresenter: Emre Ozdemir\, Visiting Assistant Professor (Pratt Institute) \nSession type: DYO

SUMMARY:Visualising the online art and design student experience
DESCRIPTION:Note: Session time is listed in BST. Check your local time zone. \nOur recent research explored the experiences of over 300 learners. We discovered how online study really worked for learners with a range of other responsibilities and commitments. This has updated our conceptions of the student experience\, and our responsibility to develop learning that fits into\, rather than takes over\, students’ already busy lives. \nIn this creative workshop we will invite delegates to take an empathetic approach and use images\, diagrams and text to visualise the student experience. We will provide example situations to focus the session on how and why learning can fit into students’ busy lives. The workshop will use a Miro board with guidance provided and alternative ways of working will be supported. \nIf you have not used Miro before\, you may want to consult the Miro Quick Start Guide. \nPresenters: \n\nGeorgia Steele\, Programme Director (University of the Arts London)\nSebastian May\, Student Experience Lead (University of the Arts London)\n\nSession type: DYO

SUMMARY:Beyond Word Clouds: Case Studies of Visualizing Topics from Design Journals and Video Transcripts
DESCRIPTION:Note: Session time is listed in BST. Check your local time zone. \nThis presentation will compare two case studies of generating and visualizing topics within a corpus of text related to design research and practice. Each study compares the advantages and disadvantages of utilizing machine learning algorithms to generate the topics versus manual extraction from human participants (design students). \nWhile algorithms completed their tasks faster\, they required iterative fine-tuning by our programmers to address inherent biases in the code. On the other hand\, the design students were able to propose a set of topics without any insurmountable challenges. Finishing the tasks took them a span of a couple weeks\, but the entire process gave them an opportunity to talk about data\, bias\, and design itself. \nPresenter: Eugene Park\, Associate Professor\, Graphic Design (University of Minnesota\, Twin Cities) \nSession type: Case Study

SUMMARY:‘Lurkers’ in the Fashion Business School: A study of learning participation in Online Classrooms
DESCRIPTION:Note: Session time is listed in BST. Check your local time zone. \nThis dissertation researches learning in online classrooms. Those who participate are known as ‘posters’\, those who remain silent\, ‘lurkers’. Online learning has grown exponentially since 2020\, due to Covid-19 and use of technology. Education can be accessed via internet platforms in real-time or asynchronously. This began as a portfolio of how I taught online\, grew to a pilot study and then to an investigation focusing on those who identify as ‘lurkers’ to understand how they learn. The methodology follows an interpretivist approach. This was deliberate to give qualitative insight to balance the abundance of existing quantitative data which is often biased presenting a negative view of those who only participate infrequently\, or not at all \nPresenter: Stephanie Liberman\, Senior Lecturer (London College of Fashion (UAL)) \nSession type: Case Study

SUMMARY:Learning spatial audio with the Open Ambisonics Toolkit
DESCRIPTION:Note: Session time is listed in BST. Check your local time zone. \nWith the recent extension of application of spatial audio in the entertainment industries\, an increasing number of academic institutions are renewing their interest in the subject. However\, the plethora of techniques and practices\, together with the relative novelty of them\, has resulted in a lack of a methodology for teaching these technologies. This served as a motivation for our team to develop the Open\nAmbisonics Toolkit (OAT): a modular educational method for institutions and individuals alike\, offering a standardised and gradual theoretical introduction and promoting a democratisation of spatial audio through a DIY approach. We describe the overall design of OAT and discusses its use in an exploration-based creative media curriculum. \nPresenters: \n\nDr. Per Magnus Lindborg\, Associate Professor (City University of Hong Kong)\nGiuseppe Pisano\, PhD student (Norwegian Academy of Music)\n\nSession type: Case Study

SUMMARY:Future Echoes? A prologue & a tale
DESCRIPTION:Note: Session time is listed in BST. Check your local time zone. \nWhether we have individually given our consent or not\, as a human society we have a collective unspoken agreement in favour of open access to creative endeavour. Instead of feeling redundant\, in danger\, or that we are heading into a dystopian future\, we can show strength in this agreement as artists and educators. We can help to positively refine and safeguard through collective action and behaviours. Using concepts from Chaucer’s 14th century The Franklin’s Tale\, in which a student-magician has the potential to\ndisrupt the lives and futures of the characters through technology\, we draw parallels between the similar 21st century brink at which we find ourselves. We are now all the creators of stories\, we are now all the student-magician. \nPresenters: \n\nNatasha Bonnelame (London College of Fashion\, UAL)\nAndy Lee\, Teaching & Innovation Lead (London College of Fashion\, UAL)\nNadia Malik\, Programme Director: Performance (London College of Fashion\, UAL)\nBen Turnbull\, Lecturer in Performance Technology and Design (London College of Fashion\, UAL)\n\nSession type: DYO

SUMMARY:Hangul Project: bilingual and intercultural experiences between English and Korean
DESCRIPTION:Note: Session time is listed in BST. Check your local time zone. \nThis panel will present and discuss bilingual and intercultural experiences between English and Korean as experiential visual dialects. It articulates new visual narratives from intercultural perspectives. It employs the Hangul alphabet\, an English typeface designed using Korean consonants and vowels for a translingual experience. It is multidisciplinary visual research using diverse mediums\, from typeface design\, woodworking\, digital art\, and 3D printing to game performance. Each medium delivers intercultural experiences as impressionistic\, narrative\, tactile\, and playable. It will suggest the new dimensional visual narrative and function from conventional to contemporary mediums with the latest technology. \nPresenters: \n\nTaekyeom Lee\, Assistant Professor (University of Wisconsin-Madison)\nYeohyun Ahn\, Assistant Professor (University of Wisconsin-Madison)\nChanee Choi\, Assistant Professor (University of New Mexico)\nShin Yeon Jeon\, Visiting Assistant Professor (University of Toledo)\n\nSession type: Panel

SUMMARY:Fostering Resistance through Digital Cultures and Art Pedagogies: Exploring Emerging Trends
DESCRIPTION:Note: Session time is listed in BST. Check your local time zone. \nThis panel explores the intersections of power\, oppression\, and resistance in digital culture\, and strategies for integrating these themes into art education. Through our pedagogical approaches\, we question biases and inequities in digital realities. \nThree PhD candidates in art education will share emerging teaching strategies for increasing learners’ awareness of digital inequities as well as forms of resistance. Panelists’ research areas include Cyberfeminism as a liberatory framework for digital art pedagogy through the lens of the Saudi feminist movement\, the theorization of a glitch feminist art pedagogy for raising digital critical consciousness\, and embodied engagement with DALL-E 2 to expose biases embedded in AI systems. \nPresenters: \n\nYe Sul Park\, PhD Candidate (Penn State)\nMaggie-Rose Condit-Summerson\, PhD Candidate (Penn State)\nFouz Aljameel\, PhD Candidate (Penn State)
