AI Empowers Design Education: Integrated Model of Prompt Teaching and Originality Cultivation in University Design Majors

Abstract

With the in-depth penetration of artificial intelligence technology in the field of design, AI design tools such as Midjourney have become important auxiliary creative means for students majoring in design in universities. However, there is a significant disconnect in the application of AI in current university design teaching: students generally face pain points such as inaccurate prompt design, lack of systematic guidance in the creative process, and insufficient homogenization and originality of works. The traditional teaching model is difficult to meet the demand for cultivating design talents in the AI era. Against this background, this paper focuses on the teaching reform of AI application in university design majors, aiming to solve the practical problems and lack of originality in AI-assisted design, and explores a new integrated teaching model of prompt teaching and originality cultivation.The theoretical significance of this study lies in constructing a teaching framework for the in-depth integration of design education and AI technology under the background of AI empowerment, enriching the interdisciplinary research achievements in the field of design education, and providing theoretical reference for the teaching reform of design majors in the AI era. The research results can provide direct reference for the AI teaching practice of university design majors, help design education adapt to the development trend of the industry, and improve the quality of talent training.
