From student assignments full of emdashes to suggestions of humanoid educators, there’s a lot to talk about when it comes to Artificial Intelligence and education. In our most recent union contract, SDEA members won AI protections for the first time in Article 2, along with a new Joint Committee to develop recommendations for parameters around the use of AI Systems. We know this is an area of quickly developing technology, and our protections need to develop quickly as well! Our community partners at the Center on Policy Initiatives are collecting educator insight through a survey that will identify issues and inform policy solutions.
