COURSE DESCRIPTION

AI has been on the minds of educators since November of 2022 when Chat GPT was introduced as a free, open resource on the internet. It seems like a thing of the future: you type a question and it provides an answer. You can have a whole conversation with your computer as it responds to your specific prompts. Though a valid initial response is fear about the inevitability of plagiarism and misuse, AI has since proven to be a valuable tool for both teaching and learning. In this webinar, you will learn how AI works, why it is important to understand it, and how it can be implemented in classroom activities. Since this “thing of the future” is here to stay, educators and their students need to know how to use it properly as a tool for critical thinking instead of a replacement for original work.
