In-Person Session

For the third year of our collaborations as the Digital Performance Working Group we will focus our in-person seminar as a teach-in on how to engage AI within the performance studies classroom. This will consist of a teach-in where members of the group will individually present 10-15 min presentations on how they engage AI through teaching exercises, reflections on in-the-class experiences with using AI, and interventions into prevailing debates around the uses and dangers of AI for learning. We will invite the audience to participate in discussion throughout and build together a set of resources for future sharing.
