Hello everyone, and welcome to our interactive workshop!
Today, we're diving deep into the challenges faced by young people and exploring futuristic solutions
with the help of AI.
Ready?
Let's dive in!
Here's what I invite you to do in this session:
Firstly, find yourself in teams of 3-4 members.
You'll be collaborating closely, so feel free to team up with those you resonate with or are curious
to work with!
Once in a team, discuss and choose a significant problem, challenge, or barrier young people you engage with
are currently confronting.
We're searching for real, pressing issues brought by new media and technology, so take a moment to deeply
consider this.
Using the ChatGPT or similar AI text assistant, you'll craft a fictional story set 5-10 years in the future.
Imagine a young individual, much like those you work with, overcoming this challenge.
Keep it within 350 words to make sure it's concise yet impactful.
Next, you'll head to any of the AI image generators to create two visuals:
One that portrays a typical young person dealing with the problem in the present.
The other captures them having overcome the issue in the future.
Think about how you want AI to visualise this transformation.
Time permitting, use an AI video generating platform.
Imagine interviewing this young individual, asking them five questions about their journey from facing
the problem to finding a solution.
Finally, it's sharing time!
We're not just presenting outcomes here - the process, your thoughts, decisions, and any challenges encountered
are equally important.
Reflection is key.
Alright, innovative minds, let's blend the power of human insight with AI's capabilities.
I'm excited to see what stories and solutions emerge.
Let's get digital!
As you journey through the workshop activities, it's essential to pause and reflect.
Let's delve deeper into our experience.
First, how did using AI shape your understanding or perspective of the problem?
Secondly, were there any elements in the AI-generated outputs that took you by surprise?
Looking ahead, how do you envision incorporating these future-oriented storytelling techniques non-formal
learning activities?
And lastly, as we embrace AI tools, what limitations or considerations should we be mindful of?
