Session 4: HI+AI Design Thinking

HI+AI Design Thinking Challenge

In this immersive 120-minute workshop, we invite you to harness the power of IDEO.org's design thinking framework to address a challenge drawn from your own experience as an educator - a day in your life. This workshop will help you explore and understand the intersections of AI and education through the lens of your daily experiences. Beginning with empathy, you'll share your personal interactions, challenges, and insights about AI in your daily work. These shared experiences will serve as a foundation as you, in small groups, identify and define a clear, user-centric problem statement to tackle. Following the principles of ideation, you will collaboratively brainstorm potential AI solutions, encouraging creativity and broad thinking. Once you've landed on a promising idea, you'll create a low-fidelity prototype, making your solution tangible. The workshop concludes with each group presenting their prototypes and engaging in constructive feedback sessions, embodying the iterative spirit of design thinking. This experience will not only deepen your understanding of the role of AI in education but also equip you to use AI tools like ChatGPT in designing and continually refining innovative solutions. The challenge is yours - transform a day in your life into an opportunity for AI innovation.
