Using School AI Effectively in the Classroom

Using SchoolAI Artificial Intelligence (AI) has made a remarkable entry into education, leaving educators with a mix of emotions. In this course we’ll help you navigate this new frontier by looking at different types of AI and how they’re used, the ethical challenges and dilemmas of AI in education, how AI changes teaching and learning, and how you can design activities and assessments with AI in mind.  By the end of the course, participants will be equipped with the knowledge needed to make informed decisions about how AI fits, or doesn’t fit, into their teaching practice.

Introducing AI in the Classroom

This school year, AI is a hot topic, sparking engagement and innovation in the classroom. Explore these Google tools with your students to help introduce the basics of AI.

Introducing Experience AI

Experience AI is an educational program for teachers and students aged 11–14, offering cutting-edge resources on artificial intelligence and machine learning. Developed by the Raspberry Pi Foundation and Google DeepMind, it supports teachers and ignites students' passion for AI.

For younger students, try Google’s “Quick Draw!” to introduce AI concepts. It's a fun, interactive game where students draw pictures, and an AI tries to identify them. This activity makes learning about AI engaging and accessible for all ages.
