Artificial Intelligence: Guidance for K-12 Classrooms
This resource is designed to provide procedural guidance and instructional strategies to district leaders, school leaders, and classroom teachers on how to appropriately use artificial intelligence (AI) in schools. The guide starts with a definition of AI and explores its impact on the classroom. It also highlights how students, teachers, and administrators can leverage AI, and what factors should be taken into consideration when developing a policy for AI use.
Webinar: The MDE hosted a webinar on April 17, 2024 to provide an overview of the guidance document. During this webinar, Chris Chism, Superintendent of Pearl School District, joined us as a special guest to share some exciting ways he is already harnessing the power of AI to support productivity.
