Abstract
In an era where Artificial Intelligence (AI) permeates our lives, its impact on children raises critical considerations. This workshop aims to delve into the multifaceted realm of Human-Centered AI (HCAI) for children, exploring the transformative role of AI in fostering creative expression and inclusive learning environments. Our goal is to unite diverse research expertise and methodologies, focussing on how AI can be tailored to meet diverse learning needs, enabling personalized and engaging educational experiences which support creativity. This workshop will bring together researchers, educators, technologists, and practitioners for expert talks, interactive demonstrations, and collaborative discussions,. Our goal is to foster a multidisciplinary dialogue on developing child-centered AI solutions that enhance creative learning while being mindful of inclusivity, ethical considerations and safeguarding against potential risks.
