Tennessee STEM Education Center (TSEC)’s Post

"The future of teaching is here, and it's more exciting than ever! 🌏 I just concluded the CENTA Global Teachers' Meet, where we explored the transformative power of AI in education. From personalized learning to innovative assessment strategies, AI offers unprecedented opportunities to enhance student outcomes. But with great potential comes great responsibility. How do we ensure that AI is used ethically and equitably? How do we prepare our students to thrive in a world shaped by technology? These were just a few of the thought-provoking questions we tackled at the conference. A special thanks to @CENTATeachers and the incredible facilitators, including Dilip Thakore, Dr. Padma, Tiffany Taylor, Lliana Nadi, Ravi Venkatesan, Alim Ladha, Retd. Col. Gopal, Rahul Patel, Dr. Yuhyun Park, and many others, for creating such a vibrant and inspiring community. Together, we're shaping the future of education, one classroom at a time. #education #futureofteaching #AI #teachers #globalcommunity"

Today in Technology for Learners (EDUC 281) we were visited by Jessica Ann, the Manager of the AI Tinkery, which is part of the Stanford Accelerator for Learning and is hosted at Stanford University Graduate School of Education. The AI Tinkery is a brand new collaborative space for members from across the university to play and tinker with the possibilities of generative AI in education. Every week in class we look at a different technology, get a chance to use it hands on, and discuss the affordances and challenges around the tech. Jessica guided students around the new Stanford AI Playground (https://lnkd.in/gB_kmG_z), which is open to faculty, staff and students and gives access to different gen AI models and lets them explore some deeper subjects like using plugins, creating custom chatbots and comparing models. It was great to see how students responded to using the AI Playground, and how gen AI models and custom chatbots could be useful for their final class project of doing an Analysis of a Learning Tool. Thanks Jessica for joining class! https://lnkd.in/gbCiiivx #genai #edtech

Watch Ep. 8: https://lnkd.in/eX4KvKjk Continuing with Part 2 (Blog 1) of a fascinating conversation with Daithí Ó Murchú, we explore the sweeping impact that technological singularity could have on education. As AI begins to reshape the classroom, the question arises: how will this transformation influence the development of young minds? On one hand, AI brings incredible tools to personalize learning, support educators, and enhance resource allocation, all pointing to a future of unprecedented educational potential. Yet, as we enter this era, there’s equal cause for caution. The “digital divide” threatens to widen, privacy concerns loom, and over-reliance on AI risks sidelining core aspects of human connection and organic development. In discussing “HumAInology,” we ponder models where AI complements rather than controls, empowering educators to focus on mentorship, critical thinking, and creativity. But we ask, how can this future be shaped if educators aren’t integral to AI’s design from the ground up? As we prepare students for an AI-driven world, ethical considerations, collaborative models, and adaptive skills will be crucial.

CONFERENCE RECORDING AI IN ACTION EPISODE 18 Empowering Educators and Students with AI: Equity, Access, and Action How can we use AI to transform education while ensuring equity and inclusivity? In her powerful session, "Practical Applications of UNESCO AI Competency Frameworks for Teachers and Students," Maurie Beasley, M.Ed., an award-winning System Administrator and AI advocate, shared actionable strategies to bridge the digital divide and make AI a force for good in K-20 education. Key Takeaways from the Session: ✅ Understanding UNESCO’s AI Competency Framework: Why it’s essential for modern classrooms. ✅ Strategies for Inclusion: Practical ways to integrate AI into schools while fostering accessibility for all students. ✅ Navigating Risks: Avoiding the pitfalls of blocking AI in education and leveraging it responsibly. ✅ Empowering Educators: Steps to help teachers adopt AI tools effectively to enhance teaching and learning experiences. Maurie’s deep expertise in K-12 education and her innovative approach to AI-driven solutions offer a roadmap for educators and administrators to harness the power of AI while promoting equity and action in education. 💡 Let’s reimagine the future of learning—together! Share your thoughts: How can we integrate AI to address equity and access in education? Let’s collaborate to ensure that every teacher and student benefits from the incredible potential of AI. #AIinEducation #EdTech #DigitalEquity #UNESCOFramework #AIEdPro #Innovation

As the year winds down, we’re excited to bring you the final edition of "Bringing AI to Your Campus" for 2024! In this installment, we spoke with Christopher Mah, a Doctoral Student at Stanford University Graduate School of Education, about the evolving role of AI in education. Christopher shared how tools like ChatGPT and NotebookLM are reshaping writing instruction, enabling students to brainstorm ideas, engage with content in new ways, and receive personalized feedback. While these tools present incredible opportunities, Christopher also emphasized the importance of teaching AI literacy to address challenges like equitable access and ethical use. His research bridges the gap between theory and practice, offering valuable frameworks for integrating AI into classrooms responsibly and effectively. How are you preparing students to use AI responsibly in their learning journeys? We’ll be back with more thought-provoking conversations next year. Until then, read more about Christopher Mah’s insights here: https://lnkd.in/gB74_iCt #vocareum #teachingwithAI #AIforeducation #edtechinnovation #edtech

🌐 The future of higher education is evolving, and AI is at the heart of it. I recently participated in the “Data Science and AI for Executives” course at LSE, exploring how AI can transform education at Regent College London and beyond. From personalising student support to breaking down accessibility barriers, the potential is incredible. It’s not just about technology; it’s about creating a more inclusive, supportive, and forward-thinking learning environment for all.

Yesterday marked the International Day of Education, celebrated under the theme 'AI and Education.' ✨📖 As we reflect on the transformative potential of artificial intelligence in shaping the future of learning, I can't help but wonder: What would you do differently if you had the opportunity to design an AI tool for education? Would you focus on bridging learning gaps, personalizing education for diverse needs, or perhaps enhancing access to quality resources for underserved communities? This is a call to action for innovators, educators, and dreamers—how can we use AI not just as a tool, but as a force for equitable and meaningful education? Let me know your thoughts below! 💡 #EducationDay #AIandEducation #Innovation #LifelongLearning"
