Using AI as Clients and Design Thinking Coaches
Come explore how AI can be used to coach and support project-based learning through design thinking strategies. We will present models we have developed and implemented in our Design Technology, Computer Science, and Visual Art classrooms, as well as in initiatives beyond the classroom such as STEAM projects and service learning.
Participants will have the opportunity to engage with an AI-powered design thinking coach and simulated client in a short challenge, and then practice designing their own lessons, projects, and models.
