August 31, 2024
9:00am — 5:00am ET

Artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming increasingly relevant to art learning with applications in art creation, and in understanding the ethical implications around creating with AI. AI is also becoming critical in youth’s future careers—including creative careers. Most AI learning resources are currently geared towards CS and STEM classrooms. In this workshop, we explore how we can use AI for creative learning. Students will learn about how foundational generative AI models work, how they can be used in creative fields, what their social and ethical implications are, and even create creative robots. This is a 20 hour offering with flexible scheduling.

Sign ups are NOW CLOSED. 

CLASS STRUCTURE:

Students will learn about AI techniques as applied to art learning. They will learn about how generative AI algorithms work, and how they can leverage them to create media. Students will participate interactive learning activities, classroom discussions and art making. Each student will maintain a digital portfolio of knowledge they gained and artwork they generated during the workshop.
