Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming the world we live in. From using generative AI for schoolwork to dealing with misinformation and befriending AI chatbots, students have a lot to consider when it comes to this ever-evolving technology. In this edWebinar, attendees will learn to think critically about how we can be responsible and ethical users of AI.

Join Common Sense Outreach and Ambassadors as they demonstrate a collection of quick lessons (20 minutes or less!) that provide an introduction to AI, orient AI to our students, and help address its social and ethical impacts. Attendees will leave with practical resources for digital citizenship, lesson plans, and strategies to mitigate the potential harms of generative AI in school communities. Through these lessons, students will:

  • Understand what AI is and how it works
  • Consider some of its potential benefits and risks
  • Think critically about how we can be responsible and ethical users of AI

This edWebinar will be of interest to middle and high school teachers, librarians, and school leaders. There will be time for questions at the end of the presentation.
