What's at Stake? Young People's Take on AI & Education

 

What's at Stake? Young People's Take on AI & Education
Ayça Atabey, Colton Botta, Harry Dyer, Esther Priyadharshini, Jen Ross, Cara Wilson

Publishing Details:
A4 printed zine
36 pages
Colour way in orange and light blue

Description:
This zine represents the messages young people wanted to share with decision-makers and educators, to help you make responsible AI a reality in education. Funded by an AHRC 'Bridging AI Responsible Divides' project grant.

"In June 2024, young people at three secondary schools took part in workshops on the topic of the future of responsible artificial intelligence in education. This work was part of a larger research project on the emerging context of generative AI (GenAI) tools and their implications for education, now and in the future.

This zine is one outcome from these workshops, and it represents the messages young people wanted to share with decision-makers and educators, to urge you to make Responsible AI a reality in education. The young people were creative, thoughtful and imaginative – these materials express their hopes, fears, and personal meaning-making with and about AI. We encourage you to see their images and words as an important act of AI literacy, expressed through creativity, collaboration and reflection.

For the most part, young people are providing you with questions, not answers. We learned and had our assumptions challenged by their work. Please take what they have offered here as a provocation, a confrontation and an opportunity to think expansively about your own values and hopes for education". (from the project's website)

There are some pertinent comments about bias and representation here, the kids absolutely get it. Fascinating reading for anyone researching creativity and AI with education. For example, "Young people highlighted many unknowns regarding the consequences of using or not using GenAI. They wonder if they can trust the tech companies, when they see so many examples of unsolicited ads, bias, censorship and other negative consequences of technology."

Sarah Evenson

Publishing Info:
Minneapolis, USA, 2016
A5, 16 pages (reversible format)
Colour laser print.

Description:
“Digitally printed from original screen prints and graphite drawings. This reversible zine uses the two possible aspect rations of the book format to explore the two main archetypes of female representation in western art history. In redrawing the images by hand I imbue them with a new personality while engaging the traditional cornerstone of arts education: copying the masters. However the goal here isn’t to reproduce a quality or style, it’s to mock the cannon.”

White Fungus - issue 11



White Fungus - issue 11
By Ron and Mark Hanson

Publishing Info:
Taichung City, Taiwan, 2010
17cm x 24cm, 128 pages, saddle-stitched binding
Commercial printing.

Description:
"White Fungus is an art magazine based in Taichung City, Taiwan. Founded by brothers Ron and Mark Hanson in Wellington, in 2004, as a quasi political manifesto, copies of the first issue were produced on a photocopier, wrapped in Christmas paper and hurled anonymously through the entrances of businesses throughout the city. Now a magazine featuring interviews, writing on art, new music, history and politics, White Fungus takes a dialogical approach to the work it covers. The name of the publication comes from a can of “white fungus” the Hansons found in their local supermarket in the industrial zone of Taichung City. Each cover of White Fungus is derived from a scan of the can."
