While reviewing the Teaching Responsible Use of AI lesson plan from @googleworkspace.bsky.social, I was impressed with the 5 tips for using AI responsibly.

These are great tips to emphasize to students (and ourselves)!

Love this graphic that @stacykratochvil.bsky.social shared on LinkedIn!

I think education has largely focused on AI literacy, but for AI to be truly impactful, we need to shift our focus to AI fluency!

Another fun AI prompt idea from Lori Gracey and @tcea.org!

Invent a superhero version of me. What are my powers and weaknesses?

According to ChatGPT, I am TechGuardian, the ultimate defender of education and digital learning!

I like these prompt ideas from Conor Grennan! I think these can be useful in getting users to think more deeply about AI's responses.

Thank you Lori Gracey for sharing this in the @tcea.org AI community!

Lots to think about in the #DitchSummit session with @hollyclarkedu.bsky.social & @ditchthattextbook.com!

The ACE Framework is a helpful way to think about AI literacies. It reaffirms the AI Passport work I've done with our Digital Learning Team!

Check out Holly & Matt's session ditchsummit.com

What a fun activity! Lori Gracey suggests asking AI - Out of all the data you have on me, generate an image that you think captures who I am.

ChatGPT says my image "captures your multifaceted passions & professional pursuits. It represents your love for nature, education, technology, & creativity"
