Library 2.0 & Learning Revolution's
CREATIVITY AND AI
An Online Bootcamp for Teachers and Librarians
OVERVIEW:
This bootcamp aims to inspire and inform teachers and librarians about the evolving relationship between creativity and artificial intelligence. While Al presents exciting possibilities for amplifying human imagination, it also challenges traditional notions of originality, authorship, and educational value. Is Al good or bad for creativity? Focusing on current research, examples, expert insights, and practical applications, this session will explore both sides of the coin to help you empower students to make better decisions while interacting with novel technologies.

NINO TRENTINELLA
Nino Trentinella is a multi-award-winning contemporary photographer, artist, and educator. Born in the Soviet Republic of Georgia, she later studied in the United States, receiving her MFA in Imaging and Digital Arts. Nino began her career as a fine art photographer and has since worked as a professor/teacher and director/chair of art and photography in different countries.
Nino is known for her conceptual and thought-provoking images. Her work makes a commentary on current social and cultural issues and her photographs take on a more ethereal and otherworldly quality. She has a special interest in stereoscopy and cutting-edge technologies such as AI, which she incorporates into her work to create a sense of depth and alternate realities.
Nino's work has been exhibited in galleries and museums around the world, and she has won numerous awards and accolades for continuing to push the boundaries of art, including an Award by the President of the USA for excellence in teaching Digital Arts. Nino’s AI-generated images won first and second place at the annual Stereoscopic Society Exhibition and the Martin Wilsher Award “for all the outstanding work done with AI in stereoscopy and in raising the profile of stereoscopy in teaching work.” She also won the 2023 Pearson National Teaching Award for digital innovator of the year.
