About this Event
AI and the Future of Education
ChatGPT erupted into the world of education in November, 2022. Defenders hailed this innovation as a great leap forward for teaching, learning and research. Critics, including some leading names in the field of artificial intelligence, were far more cautious about ChatGPT and related AI inventions. Will these developments enhance or stifle creativity? Will they free students’ imaginations or deepen their dependence on technological tools that are not widely understood?
Panelists from the K-12 and post-secondary educational sectors discuss if, and how, AI can be used creatively in schooling and higher education. As teachers and students grapple daily with these new digital systems, the panelists provide preliminary guidance as to how educators can contend effectively with this major educational challenge.
PROGRAM MODERATOR Clare Brett, Professor Emerita, Department of Curriculum, Teaching and Learning, OISE/University of Toronto, has taught and written widely on the integration of technology into the classroom.
This special event is designed for teachers, professors, parents, students and the general public.
