Problem

The education problem at hand involves students' hesitancy to share opinions about artwork in both classroom and museum settings, leading to a lack of engagement and confidence in art analysis. Museum educators face challenges in accommodating diverse visitors with varying levels of art knowledge and creating effective lesson plans. The solution sought is the development of interactive learning materials, including images, slides, videos, and storybooks, utilizing AI technology. These materials aim to guide students and museum visitors through the art appreciation process while fostering psychological safety for expressing thoughts and opinions about artwork.

Solution

We developed chatGPT, an AI-generated lesson plan that helps museum educators create a personalized learning experience for each visitor. The lesson plan includes learning objectives, activities, and learning materials tailored to each visitor's background and level of knowledge about art.

The chatGPT lesson plan also introduces a critique process that encourages visitors to express their personal thoughts and feelings about artwork in a safe and non-judgmental environment. This approach helps build psychological safety for visitors and fosters engagement with the museum experience.

Learning objectives

The lesson should help the student to build the psychological safety to talk about personal thoughts about an artwork. The lesson will teach the students how to appreciate art by following certain processes.

Main Activities and Pedagogical Approach

The lesson should be activity-based and avoid listing a bunch a direct information to the student.

The lesson should invite the student to do activities and practices and scaffold the learning with art appreciation and art critique vocabularies.
