The world is changing, technology is continually evolving, schools should be advancing too!
I believe schools change from the inside out. Schools evolve!
How is your school community using AI (artificial intelligence)?
Have your teachers and school leadership been trained? Are they using it ethically and responsibly?
Do you have an AI school policy? How are you teaching critical and analytical thinking in the school?
Our children are using AI - we really do need to change the way we teach! Let's chat!

Feedback about an AI workshop: "I enjoyed the access to how things can be done differently. Setting tasks with AI made the training so relevant and took out the long hours I put into preparation. I liked seeing new ways of putting my subject instead of saying what went wrong how do we improve.
The checking, verification and smart way of saying if we don't then AI has to think for you. Thank you so much for sharing what is not always an easy area to mitigate."
