AI Enhanced Processes: Creativity Deep Dive
If you enjoyed Alex’s first session on AI-Enhanced Processes, this follow-up dives deeper into one of its most powerful applications—Creativity. Drawing from his free eBook Using AI to Enhance Creativity, Alex explores how the Think–Generate–Edit process helps students and educators use AI as a creative partner rather than a shortcut. Through research-based insights, classroom examples, and before-and-after transformations, participants will see how AI can expand imagination while keeping human thinking at the center. Expect a hands-on, reflective session that builds directly on the ideas from his keynote and invites you to reimagine what creativity looks like in AI-rich classrooms.
