Abstract

This article presents an innovative educational framework that bridges classical literature, computational thinking, and mathematical concepts through the integration of generative AI and visual programming. Focusing on the dialogue between Odysseus and Calypso from Homer’s Odyssey, we designed an interactive Scratch-based project where students engage in digital storytelling while applying core mathematical principles— Cartesian coordinates, geometric transformations, and algorithmic logic. Custom AI-generated visuals, created using Stable Cascade via ComfyUI, enhance the pedagogical approach by combining prompt engineering with creative expression. Detailed ComfyUI workflows and Scratch project code are provided as supplementary materials for full reproducibility. Our interdisciplinary model addresses the need for 21st-century skill development, fostering creativity, critical thinking, and AI literacy. Challenges, including resource requirements and ethical considerations, are discussed alongside future research directions. This work contributes to the growing discourse on technology-enhanced, cross-curricular education, offering a replicable blueprint for integrating humanities, computation, and AI in K-12 learning.
