AI in education is evolving fast, and schools need to be ready for this upcoming school year. This is a good read for school leaders who are trying to think about the best way to create frameworks and protocols. Some key points: Political 📌 Create an AI task force. 📝 Establish guidelines and promote AI literacy. 🗣️ Engage stakeholders through focus groups and surveys. Operational 🛠️ Develop a phased AI roadmap. 👩💼 Appoint an AI director. 🔍 Set up a governance structure to audit AI use. Technical 🏫 Disclose AI tool usage in schools. 💰 Dedicate funding to AI initiatives. 🔧 Establish a support network for resources and best practices. States like California, Ohio, and Virginia are already implementing AI guidance, reflecting a trend toward responsible AI integration in education. Educators and policymakers must embrace these guidelines to harness AI's potential while protecting our students' futures. What is your school district doing to prepare for these changes? #AIEducation #EducationInnovation #EducationMatters #EducationTechnology

CDT's Senior Technologist Hannah Quay-de la Vallee in CalMatters discussing the pressures of educators to adopt #AI and the need for educators to engage in “critical analysis” before bringing #AI to the classroom. “Staff shortfalls, techno-optimism, a desire to be on the cutting edge and a fear of missing out all push educators to adopt AI, said [CDT’s] Quay-de la Vallee.” “[Quay-de la Vallee] thinks recent events [show] that more education leaders need to engage in critical analysis before bringing AI tools into classrooms… whether a particular AI tool deserves more scrutiny depends on how it’s used & risk that use poses to students:” “Some forms of #AI, like the kind used for grading and predicting if a student will drop out of school, [Quay-de la Vallee] said, deserve high risk labels.” “Quay-de la Vallee suggested that educators work with organizations that vet and certify education technology tools such as Project Unicorn, a nonprofit that evaluates edtech products.” https://lnkd.in/eBnqrY5f

Not the best use of #AIineducation… “…the school board approved a $12 million project to install more than 7,000 AI cameras districtwide this summer. District leaders said the high-tech surveillance system is meant to make schools safer…” [dramatic eye roll] 🙄 But. They are also considering Khanmigo. [yawn] 🥱 1:1 AI support is an expectation at this point This brings me back to my post earlier in the week. We are answering the wrong questions. 🚫 How can we do things better? ✅ How can we do better things? 🦾 Which tasks should be given to AI? 💪 What are the characteristics of tasks that must be done by humans? 🛑 What must we stop doing because it no longer serves us? 🤔 What better things are we going to do with the time that has been reclaimed? [Spoiler Alert] 🚨It’s not about the tools. I’m not sure what the answers are or even if these are the right questions. ⬆️ This is why I am excited about The Human Intelligence Movement. When we gather in conversation we peel back the layers to visualize the future of education. #HI4edu 💺 Fasten your seat belts and keep in mind the nearest exit must not be behind you. 🛫 #futurefocused #hi4ai

AI is reshaping industries. Districts need to be ready for the impact on schools, educators, and students.
