🫱🏼🫲🏽 Meet The AI Fluency Lab
As I work with schools and school districts — and visit teacher events —
the reality is becoming pretty clear …
*Teachers really want answers when it comes to AI.*
Without any sort of training, they feel like they’re battling against
something they don’t understand …
… and if they don’t understand it, they feel powerless.
(Does this sound familiar?)
More than half of teachers identified *“lack of training/support”* as an AI
challenge in schools (according to a recent Carnegie Learning report).

Spotify Wrapped is a fun campaign that music service Spotify does for its
listeners at the end of the year.
It wraps up your listening preferences — top artists, top songs, minutes
listened, favorite genres, and more.
It’s a great way to summarize and “wrap” up a chapter or unit.
It’s also a great way to wrap up the year!

More and more schools are talking about AI literacy.
Students need AI literacy so they know how AI should/shouldn’t be used in
academic settings — and to prepare them for the AI-integrated world where
they’ll work and live.
But teachers need AI literacy, too!
We need to understand how AI works so we can make smart judgment calls
around it.
We need to know how it can help us do our work — and where we should leave
it behind in favor of our own human abilities.
We need to know where to be cautious — and what questions we should be
asking for the sake of ourselves and our students.
That’s AI literacy — for teachers.

👀 Get a peek inside Teacher AI Literacy Level 1
I’d like to give you a little taste of what you’ll learn in Teacher AI
Literacy Level 1.
Below, I’ll share a quick summary of each of the six main modules of the
course.
Then, I’ll pull a quick idea out of one of the lessons in that module.
That way, whether you enroll in the course or not, you’ll still learn a
couple quick things about AI — and you’ll boost your own AI literacy.
Module 1: AI Educator Workflow
*Summary:* Learn how to use AI as your personal teaching assistant to plan
and differentiate instruction, streamline communication, and more.
-
💡* Idea from this module: Strategies to make learning relevant to
students. *You’re already good at building relationships with your
students. You get to know them, what interests them, what makes them tick.
Now, we can use AI to take that to the next level. Do a student interest
survey
<https://link.mail.beehiiv.com/ss/c/u001.CSI25uSD0nkv9oRWs8aajY3zwSnqBkBvoMHFTc_3NxUFnx5AXH6lOvKBid4rER6ki8uTVwyPvg6bziCvvBqMCeBgheOTWhd8944Nu6IgQ_KY1XFas4JT_zDPiUJ_UddHC2YTa-yAO347vSm59ktVTQ/4gw/W_dSS201SDS05HXIy8g3IQ/h24/h001.Vp7C0CsTQ-XGW1XfElTo2TN1tfofcvXoWLRqbt1Xl30>
at the beginning of the year. Use AI assistants like ChatGPT to provide
insights and suggestions from the results of that survey. Also, use it to
suggest analogies and other ways to inject student interests into learning.
Module 2: Cheating and AI
*Summary: *How does AI play into academic integrity? How do we create an
environment where students learn, think, and develop skills responsibly?
-
💡* Idea from this module: Citing AI isn’t good enough.* For ages, we
educators have beat the drum of “cite your sources.” Unfortunately, AI
isn’t a valid source
<https://link.mail.beehiiv.com/ss/c/u001.CSI25uSD0nkv9oRWs8aajY3zwSnqBkBvoMHFTc_3NxUTGlpVT61jZYtdJIgTnSzjrn1YcgLmOJ3B6RMwCHgNbkn3W06qvrtlmHWdETZsq-f9GpWAiHg-3jzJRtz-2XHw/4gw/W_dSS201SDS05HXIy8g3IQ/h25/h001.1Wt4COWJdWpMHGLZ0ZS2j8ZBiAt7hTvnIM128wEWjbo>.
It’s just a “best statistical average guess” of what you’re looking for.
You can use AI to work your way back to a valid source. But AI models
aren’t made for providing accurate, precise, valid answers. Because of
that, they make terrible primary sources.
Module 3: AI Responsible Use
*Summary: *What are the ethical concerns we need to be aware of with AI --
and how do they impact our decisions as educators but also as human beings?
-
💡* Idea from this module: Ask who might be helped and who might be
harmed. *AI models (like the ones that power ChatGPT) are trained on
tons and tons of data — websites, online books, journal articles, even
Wikipedia and social media. Because that data is created by humans, AI
models learn about the world through human eyes — and that includes our
biases. As you learn more about how AI works and how AI models are
developed, continually ask yourself who is helped and hurt by the way the
AI model is constructed.

Module 4: Prompting and AI Images
*Summary: *When we know how to communicate with AI models -- and some best
practices, we can generate text and images that support teaching and
learning.
-
💡* Idea from this module: Understand what AI image generators are made
for. *The AI models that create images are called diffusion models.
They’re different from the large language models (LLMs) that power
text-based AI like ChatGPT. Diffusion models look at tons of images and
pull your request into focus pixel by pixel. That means if you ask them to
create text, they’re not looking at it character by character like we do in
documents. That’s why image generators struggle with text. You can always
generate an image and then put it in a tool like Canva or Google Slides to
add text to it more accurately.
Module 5: Assessment and Feedback
*Summary:* AI can help us, as educators, to support students in their
learning journey. Learn how to use AI the right way to keep students
thinking and growing.
-
💡* Idea from this module: Balance feedback carefully.* Research on
feedback shows that timely feedback matters and is effective. AI can
provide quick and timely feedback. But you have to be careful! There are
limitations to its effectiveness — and your students don’t get the benefit
of hearing from their highly trained teacher that they have a relationship
with. Feedback isn’t all about corrections and instructions. Students
benefit from coaching from a human teacher, too. Beware the urge to provide
all of your feedback with AI.
Module 6: Student AI Co-Creation
*Summary: *When students use AI the right way, it can push their learning
and help them to demonstrate understanding in new and exciting ways.
-
💡* Idea from this module: Teach students to detect hallucinations.*
When AI models provide incorrect information but pass it off as correct,
that’s a hallucination. It’s something we adults are better able to
identify because of our life experience. But students can be too trusting —
or might just want a quick answer regardless of accuracy. Show students how
you evaluate an AI response so they can see concrete examples of AI
hallucination detection. Show them examples of flawed AI responses so they
can evaluate them themselves.
