Join us for a 50-minute listening session on AI in Education: Student and Educator Voices. This listening session is designed to be an open, collaborative discussion rather than a formal presentation. Our goal is to bring students and educators together to share perspectives, experiences, questions, and ideas related to the growing role of artificial intelligence in education. We want to create a space where participants can learn from one another, explore different viewpoints, and help us better understand what opportunities and concerns are emerging in schools related to AI.

Listening Session Goals:

  1. Explore educator and student perspectives on AI in education.

  2. Identify emerging opportunities, challenges, and unanswered questions.
