aceBeyond Acceptance and Resistance: Digital Media Students’ Judgements of Generative AI Assistance and Perceived Creative Replacement
This study investigated how Digital Media students judged acceptable and problematic forms of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) involvement in creative learning. An embedded mixed-methods analysis examined 48 completed and consented baseline survey responses from an accessible population of 120 students at an Australian university. Forty-seven responses were valid for most Likert items, with qualitative content analysis of 37 benefit responses and 41 concern responses. Participants identified potential…
Students saw value in bounded GenAI help such as troubleshooting, coding support, grammar checking, and organising information in creative learning.
Students reported concern that GenAI could displace ideation, research, and capability-building, along with worries about training practices, jobs, ethics, and creative-skill development.
The reported percentages reflect perceived risks rather than demonstrated outcomes, and come from a small sample at one university.

How to verify without trusting this page
Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-1630 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
