The Carpinteria Unified School District (CUSD) Board of Trustees last week approved the second reading of a policy addressing Artificial Intelligence (AI) by students and teachers.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Following the approval, board members questioned Superintendent Diana Rigby about the use of AI in the classroom and how the district will determine which AI tools are appropriate for student and staff use. Board member Andy Sheaffer asked Rigby how the district is limiting the use of AI in the classroom.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Rigby said the policy is meant to be a guide for teachers to determine which AI tools can be used in the classroom and how.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAt this point, we are asking teachers to work with their colleagues to make their own assessments about which tools are effective and how they\u2019re going to use those tools for teacher use,\u201d Rigby continued. \u201cTeachers are making those determinations based on the professional development that we\u2019re providing\u2026The decisions need to be made at the classroom level.\u201d<\/p>\n
Board President Jaime Diamond asked Rigby how the district will limit inappropriate AI tools or AI tools that allow inappropriate material from being used on the district\u2019s network.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Rigby stated that, within the next two months, the district is expecting teachers from throughout CUSD to make recommendations about AI tools they would like to utilize in the classroom. The tools will then be vetted by a technology specialist, Rigby said.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Carpinteria Unified School District (CUSD) Board of Trustees last week approved the second reading of a policy…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":164299,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[45],"tags":[182,181,507,74],"class_list":{"0":"post-164298","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-artificial-intelligence","8":"tag-ai","9":"tag-artificial-intelligence","10":"tag-artificialintelligence","11":"tag-technology"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/164298","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=164298"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/164298\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/164299"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=164298"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=164298"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=164298"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
