AI School Leadership Minute: Stop Blind AI Use At Your School

AI School Leadership Minute: Stop Blind AI Use At Your School
Whether it is a teacher creating a project or a student completing homework, the blind use of AI causes:
1) weak thinking,
2) dependency,
3) and unchecked bias.

One of the most important skills in teaching today is discernment.

Before AI, teachers had to go out of their way to find good sources. Now, AI can generate anything for them fast and in a confident-sounding way.

This puts off an illusion that everything AI makes is accurate and without bias.

When another human is not confident, we automatically are skeptical of what they say. If they are confident, we have to remind ourselves to question what they say.

AI is programmed to be confident. It is easy to forget to question what it produces.

When teaching staff (and students) how to use AI, stress the importance of not blindly using it. Remind them to ask themselves questions like “Does this make sense?” and “Is this accurate?”

Luke from Gruvy Education just put together a video that explains to students why it is important not to outsource their thinking to AI. Here is the link to the video.

If you want help teaching your staff how to use AI responsibly to protect your students, schedule an AI PD planning call to see if our training would fit your district: choose a time here. (Used by 250+ schools.)
