Workshop Abstract

With the arrival of the intelligent era, emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, big data, and learning analytics are reshaping the landscape of education, profoundly transforming the ways knowledge is produced, disseminated, and applied. Traditional teaching models can no longer meet the demands of talent cultivation in this new era, presenting significant challenges for education as it shifts from knowledge transmission to knowledge innovation. How to leverage technology for teaching innovation, and facilitate deep construction and sharing of knowledge in the intelligent era, has become a core issue in current educational research and practice.

The "Knowledge and Teaching Innovation in the Intelligent Era" workshop aims to provide a platform for education researchers and practitioners to exchange and collaborate, exploring how intelligent technologies can stimulate knowledge innovation and teaching reform. The workshop will engage in in-depth discussions around the theoretical frameworks of technology-enabled teaching, innovative practices and implementation pathways, as well as the challenges and solutions faced in practical operations. Special attention will be given to how to use artificial intelligence technologies to promote the generation, interaction, and reorganization of knowledge, how to design learner-centered teaching activities, and how to enhance learning outcomes through data-driven instructional design. This workshop will offer participants opportunities to showcase research findings and experiences, inspiring further reflections on the future development of education in the intelligent era.

The workshop will adopt a small-scale, in-depth discussion format, featuring thematic presentations, case sharing, and interactive discussions to explore the possibilities and boundaries of educational innovation in the intelligent era, promoting the collaborative development of knowledge construction, teaching practices, and learning assessments.
