DESCRIPTION:Jérémy La Scala and Denis Gillet\nCollaborative ideation is
  essential for innovation and problem-solving\, yet students often struggl
 e to generate diverse and original ideas without adequate support. In this
  talk\, Jérémy La Scala and Denis Gillet will explore how virtual envir
 onments and artificial peers—powered by large language models—can enha
 nce collaborative ideation in educational settings.\n\n\nThey will introdu
 ce a web-based virtual environment designed to facilitate brainstorming\
 , where students collaborate with artificial peers that generate real-time
  responses to enrich the ideation process. They will present findings from
  their recent studies on different collaboration models for idea generatio
 n and offer practical recommendations for designing brainstorming activit
 ies that leverage collective intelligence.\n \n\nWithin this context\, 
 they will examine the role and impact of artificial peers\, which activel
 y co-create by providing diverse and novel contributions during brainstorm
 ing sessions.\n\n\nThe talk will conclude with a discussion on effective 
 interaction mechanisms—such as guiding questions and iterative feedback 
 loops—that maximize the potential of artificial agents. They will also s
 hare practical strategies for integrating AI-enhanced collaborative ideat
 ion into project-based and design-based learning. Finally\, They will exp
 lore future models of human-AI collaboration\, considering how artificial
  agents can support group decision-making and problem-solving in educatio
 n.
