Introduction
The Asian University for Women Graduate Program in Education's course "Educational Technology for Strong Schools" created its second open-access book. The majority of the students who contributed to this book are Afghan evacuees and/or belong to minority communities. The book is a petri dish to see how AI and open pedagogy writing assignments can productively intersect.
AI for Creativity: How AI-Tools Can Foster Imagination, Serious Play and Design Thinking
This chapter explore the relationship between artificial intelligence (AI) and creativity, particularly in educational settings. The chapter reviews scholarly perspectives on creativity, its measurement, and its role as a human trait. It contrasts the tangible, hands-on experiences of methodologies like LEGO Serious Play, design thinking and makerspaces with the virtual, outcome-focused nature of AI. It critically examines the role of AI in problem-solving and creativity, discussing both its potential benefits and the essential human elements it cannot replicate.
Information Literacy for Generative AI
AI Information Literacy: Navigating the Digital Era In the age of Artificial Intelligence (AI), information literacy has taken on a new dimension. As AI systems become increasingly integrated into our daily lives, the ability to understand, evaluate, and interact with AI-generated information is critical. This abstract introduces the concept of AI information literacy, emphasizing its importance in today's information landscape. AI information literacy encompasses the skills and competencies required to effectively engage with AI-generated content. This content includes not only text but also images, audio, and videos produced by AI models like GPT-3, DALL-E, and deepfake generators. AI information literacy goes beyond traditional information literacy, addressing the unique challenges presented by AI, such as recognizing manipulated media, understanding the ethical implications of AI-generated content, and distinguishing between human and AI-authored text. As AI continues to shape industries, media, and communication, individuals and organizations must adapt to this new reality. AI information literacy empowers individuals to critically assess the credibility and reliability of AI-generated information, while also raising awareness about the ethical considerations surrounding AI technology. It is essential for educators, policymakers, and society as a whole to foster AI information literacy to mitigate the risks of misinformation, promote responsible AI use, and harness the benefits of this transformative technology. This abstract sets the stage for a comprehensive exploration of AI information literacy and its implications in a digitally driven world.
