Undoing Algorithmic Teaching Topographies

NAFA Campus 1, Towerblock Room 5-36 (SU)

Note: Session time is listed in BST. Check your local time zone. Reversing gravitational pulls of in-person teaching toward multidirectional fluid teaching topographies of embodied texture-mapped immersive learning environments, we sought to undo the finite sequence of rigorous instructions inherent in most algorithmic learning environments. Rather than hoping new tech tools will dismantle the entrenched normative of the patriarchal house, students… Read More »Undoing Algorithmic Teaching Topographies

Generative Machine Learning as a Speculative Design Toolkit for Climate Education

NAFA Campus 1, Towerblock Room 6-14 (PC)

Note: Session time is listed in BST. Check your local time zone. Teaching climate change outcomes can be difficult due to deeply ingrained political viewpoints. Education can often evolve into debates instead of providing information. Instead, process-based methods like storytelling and games can promote climate education by motivating students to engage in speculative future scenario imagining. This work describes a workshop… Read More »Generative Machine Learning as a Speculative Design Toolkit for Climate Education
