Collaborative learning with sociocultural considerations

Short papers on collaborative learning shaped by cultural and social context, from board-game redesign grounded in distributed cognition and culturally relevant pedagogy to belonging for minority computer science students. Several examine partnership-based work, including student-AI problem-solving, cross-disciplinary mentorship, and a 16-year Japanese lesson-study RPP.

AI Literacy, AI Tools

Short papers on AI literacy and AI tools across learners and educators, from students' mental models shaping epistemic cognition of AI results to teachers' feedback strategies with intelligent tutoring systems. Other talks cover teachers' uptake of AI in climate education, neural-network simulations for educators, AI literacy with children, and bibliometric trends in STEM.

Noticing Learning

Long papers on teacher noticing and learning, including curriculum routines that mediate tensions with a collaborative AI agent and a critical look at the politics of what counts as noticing. Other talks frame teacher learning across the multiple rhythms of learning ecologies and use speculative interaction geography to imagine embodied interactions beyond AI prediction.

Complex Systems

Short papers applying complex-systems and network perspectives to learning, from higher-order network analysis of PISA data to a complexity-informed model for educating creators. Other talks examine students' difficulties with dynamic equilibrium, systems thinking via the Venus flytrap, online course ecologies, and causal reasoning through drawing.

Data Literacy and Computational Thinking

Long papers on data literacy and computational thinking, from comparing how students engage data practices in agricultural STEM to exploring spatiotemporal data through a space-time cube interface. Additional work operationalizes epistemic data agency at a data-storytelling camp and uses paper-based aids to support computational problem-solving with robotics.

Teacher Learning and AI

Four papers examine how teachers develop AI literacy and capacity, from an activity-theoretical study of why educators disengage from building AI agents to Knowledge Building professional development through design thinking. Other talks propose a socio-cognitive framework for K-8 AI literacy and analyze shared epistemic agency when teachers co-plan AI-integrated lessons with generative tools.
