Synthetic heuristics in education: multimodal integration between biographies and pedagogical praxis

https://doi.org/10.30905/rde.v10i1.1107Abstract
This experience report presents a pedagogical proposal that integrates human biographies with artificial intelligence-mediated analysis, exploring the intersections between technology, life, and education. The experience, developed for FEUSP's Education Week 2025, is organized as a three-hour workshop that uses Manus-AI in curricular analysis and multimodal content production. The methodology is based on biographical analysis to identify common themes among participants, who then perform practical creation exercises in textual, sound, and visual modalities. Based on Critical Theory of Technology and active methodologies, the proposal addresses the practical, technical, and ethical challenges of AI in education. The work presents a practical example of the workshop, in which the collaborative prompt engineering process generated a quality critical essay, later adapted for podcast and visual presentation. This demonstrates the potential of human-machine co-creation in supporting teaching activities in new formative paradigms. The experience stands out for its applicability in various educational contexts.
