Artificial Intelligence is rapidly transforming the world around us—including how we teach, learn, and engage with information. As K–12 educators, it's essential to understand what AI is, how it functions, and how it can responsibly be used in our classrooms. This course is designed to equip teachers with foundational AI knowledge, hands-on experience with educational tools, and the ethical frameworks necessary to guide students in an AI-driven world. Whether you're new to the concept of AI or already experimenting with tools like ChatGPT, this course will help you critically explore the opportunities, limitations, and responsibilities of using AI in education. By the end of these nine weeks, you'll not only be more confident using AI as a professional but also better prepared to foster AI literacy in your students.
