Workshop Overview
The event took place on Tuesday, February 24 2026 (4:00–6:00 p.m.). The session brought together children and high school students in an interactive and exploratory setting focused on creativity and artificial intelligence.
Participants were asked to create their own drawings and subsequently upload them to Gemini, prompting the system to interpret their work. The outputs were then systematically compared across different AI tools, allowing students to assess variations in interpretation, style, and accuracy critically.
A key component of the workshop was the introduction to best practices for interacting with AI systems. Students were guided on how to formulate effective prompts and, importantly, how to position AI tools as supportive personal assistants rather than replacements for human reasoning and creativity. This emphasis encouraged responsible and reflective use of AI technologies.
Learning Outcomes
- Understanding how text-to-image models interpret and generate visual content
- Recognising the importance of clarity and specificity in prompt design
- Critically evaluating outputs from multiple AI systems
- Developing an informed perspective on the appropriate use of AI as an assistive tool
The successful delivery of this workshop was made possible with the support of the following Master’s students: Martin Bratoi, Ashwin Jayan, and Prajwal UmlaNaik.
