Education is being transformed by a dynamic trifecta between teachers, students, and artificial intelligence — creating entirely new educational chronotopes (time-space configurations) where learning unfolds. This three-way relationship isn't just adding a digital layer to traditional education; it's fundamentally reshaping when, where, and how learning happens. This seminar explores how this teacher-student-AI trifecta operates across different chronotropic arrangements: from physical classrooms where AI assists real-time interaction, to virtual spaces where temporal boundaries blur, to hybrid environments where all three entities collaborate seamlessly. Building on embodied cognition theory, we'll examine how our physical presence and interactions remain crucial even as this trifecta reshapes educational time-spaces. Participants will discover: How the teacher-student-AI trifecta creates new chronotropic possibilities for learning Ways each member of the trifecta influences and is influenced by the others Strategies for leveraging this three-way relationship while preserving embodied learning experiences Methods for designing educational experiences that optimize the synergy between human and AI participants across various time-space configurations Who is it for? Higher education faculty and instructional designers Educational researchers and theorists Academic technology specialists Doctoral students in education Educational policymakers and administrators K-12 teachers seeking practical applications Corporate trainers Education technology vendors School administrators Speaker: Dr. Jasmin (Bey) Cowin, an Associate Professor at Touro University, is the recipient of the Touro University CETL Faculty Fellowship (2024). Her extensive expertise in artificial intelligence in education is further highlighted by her role as an AI trainer and former Education Policy Fellow (EPFP™) at Columbia University, Teachers College. Dr. Cowin regularly contributes to Stankevicius Media, writing on 'Insights at the Intersection of AI and Education.' Aligned with the UN's Sustainable Development Goal 4, she has contributed to initiatives such as Computers for Schools Burundi, served as a resource specialist for Amity University in Uttar Pradesh, India, and participated in TESOL “Train the Trainer“ programs in Yemen and Morocco. Her research interests encompass simulation use cases for educators-in-training, AI applications in education, metaverses, and distributed ledger technologies, with a focus on preparing educators for Education in 2060. International Education Week (IEW) is a celebration of global learning and cultural exchange, designed to expand horizons and foster connections across borders. Held from November 18-22, IEW will feature a diverse array of events, including lectures, workshops, and interactive sessions, where educators and students alike can explore the future of education and innovation.
