The ability to create images from text is one of today’s most exciting technological developments, but how does it actually apply in a classroom? This workshop provides a clear, hands-on guide to harnessing AI image generation for practical and engaging educational purposes. You will learn the fundamentals of “prompt engineering” to effectively generate a wide range of visuals—from realistic photos and cartoon characters to abstract art and technical diagrams. We will explore the full spectrum of applications: from producing custom visuals for your instructional materials to generating thought-provoking images that spark classroom discussion and empower students as digital creators. We’ll also navigate the essential conversations around ethics and responsible use in the classroom. You’ll leave with the practical skills and confidence needed to use these impressive tools to foster creativity and engagement.
