Online Seminar for German Teachers

KIKUK 2.0 – My Future with AI: Using Art and AI Creatively in your German classroom

Date: Wednesday, October 15, 2025, 4:00 PM – 5:30 PM (CEST)
Format: Online

Is this art or can it go?” This question has long sparked debate about what art really is. Since the first AI-created artwork in 1965, the discussion has become even more interesting. Today, with tools like ChatGPT and image generators, we ask: What makes art unique? And how can we bring this topic into the classroom?

In this online seminar, we will explore how to use art and AI in DaF lessons in a creative and thoughtful way. The goal is to help teachers inspire their students to join the competition “KIKUK 2.0 – Artificial Intelligence: Creative and Critical” and work with AI in a hands-on way.

Free training offered on two dates:

Looking Back

In the previous competition “KIKUK – Artificial Intelligence Creative and Critical”, numerous young talents contributed their ideas and visions. From over 250 submissions, the jury selected the TOP 30 teams.

The winning entries show how creative and curious young people are when it comes to AI. Whether through images, videos, or music – the diversity of ideas and perspectives is remarkable.
