Abstract

In an era marked by unprecedented global challenges, including environmental degradation, social inequalities, and the rapid evolution of technology, the need for innovative educational approaches is critical. This conceptual paper explores the intersection of sustainability, creativity, and technology for education, focusing on artificial intelligence (AI) as an example. We propose a framework that synthesizes sustainability principles and creative pedagogies, detailing its components to guide the integration of AI into sustainability education. The paper illustrates how blending creative pedagogies with the notion of sustainability as a frame of mind offers a framework that allows teachers to support creative learning and problem solving, with and through technology. Using the example of AI technology, we illustrate the potential benefits and inherent challenges of integrating new technologies into education. Generative AI is a cogent example, as it presents unique opportunities for personalizing learning and engaging students in creative problem solving around sustainability issues. However, it also introduces significant environmental and ethical concerns to navigate. Exploring the balance between technological innovation and sustainability imperatives, this paper outlines a framework for incorporating technology into education that promotes environmental care with creative exploration. Through a synthesis of sustainability principles and creative pedagogies, we highlight the benefits and challenges of using AI in education, offering strategic insights to leverage technology for a sustainable and just future.
