Course Overview: Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly changing everything around us, and education is no exception. From personalized learning tools to automated grading systems, AI is already reshaping how educators teach and how students learn. As educators, we stand at a crossroads - we can passively adopt AI or actively guide its integration in ways that are ethical, equitable, and human-centered.
This course equips you with the critical knowledge and practical strategies to navigate this evolving landscape with confidence. You will examine key ethical implications of AI - including data privacy, algorithmic bias, transparency, and environmental impact - and explore how these issues directly affect your students and communities. Most importantly, this course positions you not just as a user of AI, but as an informed advocate who can shape how AI is developed, evaluated, and governed in your school and beyond.
