A School Leader's Primer on Artificial Intelligence

A School Leader's Primer on Artificial Intelligence

If you are a school leader and feeling overwhelmed about understanding everything that is going on with Artificial Intelligence right now, here's what I would do to catch up and stay up to date. This will have a HUGE impact on your organization, and is primed to be the main conversation around learning this summer:
​
​1. Watch the 60 Minutes episode on AI. It is a great primer and you'll understand this technology better than 90% of people just by watching this episode: https://lnkd.in/gj-Se4iy​
​
​2. Read the OpenAI (which powers ChatGPT) guide for educators with considerations. It is a good starting point to understand the implications on teaching and learning: https://lnkd.in/g8WXeKxa​
​
​3. Signup and use ChatGPT for free. Use it for things that you do in your daily job like writing emails, answering questions, crafting plans, researching policy, etc etc - then you'll understand why there is so much potential upside (and downside) to this technology: https://chat.openai.com/​
​
​4. Join a group like our LearningTools.ai community, where educators and sharing and check out new tools daily. Be a part of the discussion or just watch and listen: https://lnkd.in/eYf9b5A2​
​
​5. Check out UNESCO's guide to AI Ethics - this may impact your job the most as so many ethical considerations have to take place when using AI tools: https://lnkd.in/g6vqjA9v​
​
Do those FIVE things (which should only take you 2 hours tops) and you'll have a really good idea of where we've been, where we are now, and where things are headed.

PS - If you are looking for a Keynote speaker or Workshop facilitator on PBL, Engagement, Design Thinking, or AI (ChatGPT in schools) - these are all areas I'm currently working on with teachers and school leaders around the country. Most of my work is framed under the idea that learning should be meaningful and relevant so learners are engaged and empowered! Reach out today and learn more (or just reply to this email).
