Hi Hazel, I really like your post! You shared a lot of ideas about how important interactions are in learning design, and you also gave me some your own experience about the interaction in your past course. You also gave detailed thoughts about the four types of interactions based on Vrasidas, thank you for your sharing!

Interaction in inclusive learning

I typed “AI in your phone” on YouTube and choose “10 INSANE AI Apps You NEED to TRY!” by Sam Beckman since it is highly related to my topic. In this video, Sam provided 10 apps we can download on our phone that contains AI, and those apps are incredibly useful in our daily life or at work. For example, he introduced an app called Starryai, which can generate artwork based on the prompt we type in.

The interaction required from the students would be to ask them to download 1 to 2 apps listed in the video and try to make some work using those apps. They would likely follow the instructions in the video, and produce their work. I would suggest they create similar work as shown in the video, to let them get familiar with AI apps, but no need to force them to learn deeply about each app, because my learning objective is to help students to recognize how AI is used in our phones.

This activity is manageable and worthwhile because the only thing they need to complete the activity is their phone. Also, learning by doing is a great strategy for students to learn and feel the usefulness and coverage of AI. This activity could be scaled for larger numbers of students, because it is not a group project, and it is an asynchronous activity.

After they tried those apps, I would like them to submit their AI generated work to BrightSpace, and also conclude some similarities about those apps. For example After they tried those apps, I would like them to submit their AI-generated work to BrightSpace and also conclude some similarities between those apps. For example, they both take some kind of input and then generate corresponding outputs. Their submission can be seen by other students in this course if they are comfortable doing so, and there will be a discussion page for them to do peer review and be given feedback from me.
