The Oxford Handbook of Human Creativity and Generative Artificial Intelligence in Education

Abstract

This handbook comes at a critical moment in education, as generative artificial intelligence (AI) rapidly transforms learning environments and creative processes. Bringing together leading international scholars and diverse perspectives, it provides a wide-ranging examination of how GenAI may shape the future of human creativity and education across diverse contexts. This volume examines the multifaceted relationship between human creativity and AI, exploring AI’s potential to both enhance and undermine creative expression and to serve as a catalyst for reimagining pedagogical approaches. The handbook provides a far-reaching synthesis of the evolving landscape, addressing widely used AI systems as well as emerging AI-powered tools and frameworks that focus on creativity assessment, enhancement, and creative teaching and learning. The volume also examines ethical considerations and unintended consequences of using generative AI to augment human creativity in education.
