Full Description
Leadership Journeys in AI-Powered Schools addresses a comprehensive range of challenging and potential-rich scenarios for the integration of generative artificial intelligence into curriculum, instruction, and assessment. Many school professionals are concerned about the impact that AI tools will have on academic integrity, job security, teacher-student relationships, algorithmic bias, digital privacy, and beyond, particularly as young learners become proficient in free-to-use tools like ChatGPT and Midjourney. This book provides graduate students, teaching faculty, and scholars of teacher education as well as school and district leadership with accessible background information, practical use cases, and change management approaches pertaining to generative AI. School professionals in training will come away with a substantive, evidence-based means of discovering and integrating AI in a way that accommodates common uncertainties and greater preparation to manage risk and lead change.
