Abstract
This article investigates how communication design students develop critical awareness when integrating artificial intelligence (AI) tools into their creative processes. Based on three years of ethnographic observation (2022- 2024) in a final-year undergraduate design studio in New Zealand, the study documents pedagogical approaches that position AI as a situated tool within broader design practices. Objective: to demonstrate that systematic reflective practices enable emerging designers to maintain creative agency and cultural sensitivity when working with AI technologies. Methodology: action research with 87 students through structured workshops, process documentation, and longitudinal comparative analysis. Results: students participating in reflective workshops demonstrated significantly greater capacity (85% versus 41%) to recognise when AI suggestions diverged from culturally informed intentions, particularly within a bicultural educational context informed by Te Tiriti o Waitangi and Māori epistemologies.Description
