In this paper, we advance the examination of generative AI (GenAI) in educational contexts in two distinct ways. First, we introduce and evaluate an innovative workshop model designed to explore GenAI metaphors, helping participants to articulate their own and their peers' responses to the technology. These workshops included students, academics…

Purpose: This study aims to examine the integration of AI in student engagement and its benefits in the learning environment.
