Navigating Ethical and Practical Challenges of AI in Education

This session examines the complex challenges educators encounter when integrating artificial intelligence (AI) into teaching and learning. Participants will consider issues of academic integrity, equity of access, bias in AI systems, and the responsibilities teachers hold in modeling appropriate use. The discussion will also address strategies for preparing students to use AI tools critically and responsibly, balancing innovation with ethical considerations. Through case studies and collaborative dialogue, preservice educators will develop a deeper understanding of both the opportunities and responsibilities that come with teaching in an AI-augmented learning environment.

 

Following your registration, you will receive an email from EVENTSMART with a link to join the workshop, speaker or networking discussion.  There is no charge for these professional learning experiences. ISBE approved professional development hours are available upon completion of the ISBE evaluation. Students may receive a Certificate of Completion for their portfolios.
