PART I

As educators, we recognize the growing presence of generative AI in students’ academic and personal lives. While AI offers exciting opportunities for learning, creativity, and efficiency, it also presents challenges that require thoughtful guidance and ethical considerations.

 

Our goal is to provide practical strategies and real-world examples from K-12 schools to help educators navigate these conversations effectively. We focus on three key areas:

• AI Literacy – Equipping students with a foundational understanding of how generative AI works, its benefits, and its limitations.

​

• AI for Learning – Exploring ways AI can be used as a tool to enhance creativity, research, and personalized learning.

​

• AI Ethics – Encouraging critical thinking about responsible AI use, academic integrity, and the broader societal impact.

 

By fostering engaging discussions, structured learning experiences, and ethical awareness, we can help students make informed decisions about AI—ensuring they use it responsibly and effectively in their academic journey and beyond.
