Welcome 9.15 a.m. – 9.30 a.m.
9.30 a.m.–10.00 a.m.
The workshop opens with a concise theoretical introduction to extended cognition and Clark’s four conditions. Participants are introduced to the analytical lens and its relevance for examining AI-mediated learning. A short design fiction vignette is presented to ground the discussion.
10.00 a.m.–10.45 a.m.
Participants work in small interdisciplinary groups to analyze selected design fiction scenarios. Using Clark’s conditions, groups examine how AI is positioned within the learning process, identify integration depth, and discuss tensions between augmentation and dependency.
Break 10.45 a.m.–11.15 a.m.
11.15 a.m.–12.00 p.m.
Groups report back key observations. Facilitators synthesize recurring patterns of human–AI cognitive coupling, including issues related to endorsement, offloading, and metacognitive regulation. Emerging themes are documented collaboratively.
12.00 p.m.–1.00 p.m.
Participants shift from analysis to constructive redesign. In groups, they translate their insights into design principles for AI-mediated learning environments that support epistemic responsibility and sustained critical engagement.
Break 1.00 p.m.–1.30 p.m.
1.30 p.m.–2 p.m.
The workshop concludes with a plenary discussion on the usefulness and limitations of extended cognition as an analytical lens. Participants collectively outline open research questions and potential collaborative next steps.
