This workshop is designed to empower arts and design teachers and educators to effectively incorporate tools from Artificial Intelligence (AI), Augmented Reality (AR), and Creative Coding into their teaching practices - both in traditional and digital formats.
In this workshop, art educators and high school teachers will learn to utilize creative programming as a design tool. Starting from projects and questions brought from their own teaching and facilitation practices, we will gradually move from the analog to the digital realm. The goal is to acquire programming skills and develop proficiency in working with Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Augmented Reality (AR). We will critically reflect on AI and learn how it can be creatively and effectively utilized for programming solutions. Through coding in combination with AR, new design possibilities for educational and facilitation settings will be explored.
Participants will receive a practical introduction to the open-source program Processing, gain insights into Artificial Intelligence, and learn about Augmented Reality. The aim is for participants to be able to immediately apply what they have learned in their own practice. Prior programming knowledge is not required. The course can be counted as professional development for high school teachers.
The course will be delivered in a blended learning format, combining both in-person and digital sessions.

Anna-Flurina Kälin is also active as a consultant. She shares her knowledge in lectures, workshops, and as a guest lecturer at various universities. Anna is also active as an art educator at the HEK and the Kunstmuseum Basel.
The continuing education programme of the Institute of Arts and Design Education aims to broaden participants’ perspective of their own artistic work and shared creative endeavours with others. Participants will be introduced to creative educational strategies, and acquire the ability to make creative debates effective for social processes. Both the weeklong continuing education courses and the optional one-on-one coaching sessions integrate methods from the fields of education, the fine arts, arts education, performance and other participatory practices. The improvement of artistic, creative and communication skills can help pave the way for more equal opportunities. Social inclusion, as one of the main conditions of equal opportunities, requires good communication and cultural competences – and it is these competences that artistic and creative educational strategies can do an excellent job at cultivating. By strengthening artistic and creative competences, we not only increase the realms of possibility for design, but also for communication, social interactions, the strengthening of social structures, personal expression and the experience of self-efficacy.
