Local Workshops
Osnovna Skola Pantovcak
Workshops developed after LTTA1 in Croatia
Students workshops
On February 20th, our amazing students Petra and Gala introduced Magic School AI to a class of 24 students.
They showcased all the tools offered in the application, especially image creator. The students loved the possibilities that it offers, and they especially liked the Podcast tool. We are having second workshop in March to work on specific tools in Magic School.
On March 6th students Marko and Andro presented the game Beat the crocodile – reinforced learning. They presented it to 20 different students who tried to beat the crocodile. They also tried to play online.
They explained to the students how AI learns, how it collects data and how they cannot beat the computer.
On March 13th the students were given the task to make avatars for their friend by generating an image using AI and they were supposed to introduce themselves using the podcast tool. It was interesting, engaging and fun. The students loved it!
Teachers workshops
On the 13th of March 2025 we held a workshop about AI tools in education that we have learned in the LTTA 1 - learning teaching training activity in Croatia.
Although we have presented to all the teachers some of the activities we have done with the students such as AI impostor or “Beat the crocodile” we mostly based the workshop on Magic School AI. This tool is extremely adaptable to all subjects and grade levels and has many different applications like Podcast, image generator, etc. They loved the workshop and said that they will use the tool in their class.
Workshops developed after LTTA2 in Spain
Students workshops
After the LTTA2 in Spain, Croatian students organized and facilitated three engaging workshops for their peers. These workshops provided valuable opportunities for peer-led learning, critical thinking, and creative exploration related to artificial intelligence and its applications.
Workshop 1: Debating the Future of AI in Education
Date:15th May
Leaders: Petra, Gala, and Marko
Present students: 20
Description: A dynamic debate session focused on the potential impacts, challenges, and opportunities of artificial intelligence in educational settings. Students examined ethical considerations, technological advancements, and the evolving role of educators.
Learning Objectives:
- Develop critical thinking and argumentative skills through debate.
- Understand the potential benefits and risks associated with AI in education.
- Cultivate teamwork and effective communication in a discussion setting
Workshop 2: Energy Consumption of AI Technologies
Date: 22nd May
Leader:Gala
Present students: 22
Description:This workshop addressed the environmental impact of artificial intelligence, specifically focusing on energy consumption. Students participated in practical tasks similar to those performed by a French professor, exploring ways to measure and reduce AI’s energy footprint.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the environmental implications of AI technology.
- Analyze how AI consumes energy and the importance of sustainable AI practices.
- Apply practical methods to assess and minimize energy use in AI applications.
Workshop 3: Creativity and AI – Art and Music
Date: 29th May
Leaders: Bela and Kira (Art Guru workshop on painting and AI in art), Ida and Mia Marija (AI-powered music creation using Suno)
Present students: 20
Description: This creative workshop showcased how artificial intelligence can be used as a tool for artistic expression. Students explored AI-assisted painting techniques and learned to compose music with AI tools. It was so amazingly interesting.
Learning Objectives:
- Explore the intersection of artificial intelligence and artistic creativity.
- Gain hands-on experience in AI-assisted painting and music creation.
- Foster innovation and artistic expression through technology.
Teachers workshops
On the 24th June 2025. teachers Daniela Žižanović and Dina Batarilo shared examples of good practices gained during their professional development in Madrid as part of the SMILE project. On this occasion, they presented interesting artificial intelligence tools Art Guru and Suno, which can enrich the teaching process.
Workshops developed after LTTA3 in Portugal
Students workshops
WORKSHOP 1:
In the first workshop on 20th January 2026, students helped their peers explore how artificial intelligence is part of everyday life.
They discussed how machines learn and where AI influences familiar activities and decisions. They also explored AI video creation, using ChatGPT to write a script and HeyGen to make an avatar speak. In teams, participants designed an original AI-based innovation and considered the need it could address.
Each team presented its idea, sharing knowledge gained in Portugal and encouraging peers to think critically and creatively about AI. The number of present students were 19.
WORKSHOP 2:
On 6th February 2026 students had a workshop about HeyGen video making.
They learned how to build an avatar and make a scenario for a short video.
​
The workshop was held by students Gala and Vedran who were on LTTA 3 in Portugal.
Vedran made a video tutorial for using Heygen. 20 students were present.
Teachers workshops
In the teacher workshop, teachers shared practical approaches to introducing computational thinking and coding in lessons.
​
Drawing on the Portugal sessions, they explored how educational robots such as Bee-Bots can support learning across different subjects.
Teachers also exchanged ideas about using digital and AI tools creatively and responsibly.
9 teachers were present.
Workshops developed after LTTA4 in France

Students workshops
After returning from France, students at our Croatian school led two workshops (24th and 27th April 2026.) about the environmental impact of AI.
They compared different AI models by giving them the same prompt and examining the responses. Using a comparison platform, they discussed differences in the models’ performance and energy efficiency.
The activity helped students understand that AI queries computing power and energy from data centres.
They reflected on how to choose and use AI tools thoughtfully and responsibly. 21 students were present.
Teachers workshops
After returning from France, teachers held a workshop on the 20th June 2026 to explore responsible ways of using AI in teaching.
Drawing on the teacher learning and MOOC development in France, they considered basic AI concepts, ethical questions and environmental impact. They shared ideas for using AI across subjects such as languages, art, music, storytelling and STEM.
​
Through discussions, teachers considered how AI could support learning while encouraging students to think critically about its outputs. The session supported the exchange of experience and helped teachers plan meaningful AI activities for their classrooms.
