ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
Amy Webb. futurist and author of The Big Nine: How The Tech Titans And Their Thinking Machines Could Warp Humanity says that we have "a chasm in understanding in how AI is impacting daily life in the present, one growing exponentially as we move years and decides into the future."
We are exploring how AI is and will impact K12 education - how we teach AI to students, how AI will be used in learning and teaching and how AI will change how teachers, education leaders and education institutions work.
Our aim is to start to ask questions, explore ideas and start conversations that will make the real world, and near future, implications of AI in K12 education real and meaningful.

WHAT WE'RE READING
Some things we're reading right now about AI and its implications for education.

COURSES WE'RE MAKING
We've developed a platform of microcourses that allow students to learn about key concepts in AI.
The microcourses cover many of the important concepts in AI. They cover not just the concepts, but ask students to build AI applications using the same technologies that are used to build real-world AI.
The courses were developed by Haileybury teachers Toan Hynh, Jeff Plum and Jerry Daly working with Dr Peter Thomas.
You can access the microcourses here.
