Erin Mawn, Library Media Specialist, Northwood School
* 
Level: Beginner


Explore real-life lesson plans and project ideas that librarian Erin Mawn has utilized in her middle-school AI Exploration elective class. Two years ago, she designed this elective course to make Artificial Intelligence accessible and engaging for students. Erin provides a look at the discussion topics, lessons, activities and projects she uses to engage and guide students as they learn about Artifical Intelligence. Attendees learn how to integrate AI concepts into existing curricula using age-appropriate tools and resources, and create engaging lessons such as AI and the Music Industry, or AI vs The Simpsons. By providing lessons that are fun and relevant students can exercise their critical thinking skills and see how AI is becoming integrated in our daily lives. By carefully selecting and vetting resources, students can explore AI applications and sites in a safe, supportive environment. Participants leave with ready-to-use materials and strategies to inspire the next generation of tech-savvy thinkers.
