Session description

Students are anxious to use generative AI, but many lack the ability to use it ethically and effectively. With student rooms in Magic School, educators can customize AI learning experiences for students and can monitor and moderate their use to ensure learning is at the forefront. Custom chatbots and study aids serve as personalized tutors for students, helping them maximize their learning potential and leveling the playing field for all. Finally, student creativity can take center stage as AI tools support brainstorming and creative development. In this session, learners will experience Magic School from a student's perspective to see how it can empower ethical AI use in the classroom and beyond.
