New Learning Club on Teaching with Artificial Intelligence

About

This New Learning Club will focus on the adoption of AI solutions by educators and teachers, to try answering some of the hot questions that require attention. Participants will debate on the ways to integrate AI tools safely and effectively in teaching settings, to implement software in school environments and deal with e.g., correct and consistent assessment of students’ work, etc. The Club will allow to share inputs, guidelines, practices, points of view on the topic, as well as to exchange helpful tools to be possibly adopted in teaching and learning.
