Artificial intelligence is transforming education in ways that can enhance learning experiences, improve educational outcomes, and streamline administrative tasks. Students and educators’ use of AI tools has grown exponentially. While AI offers significant potential in education, it also raises concerns in various areas such as privacy, bias, ethics, and the role of the educator.
 
In this webinar, here from the Graduate School of Education: Victor R. Lee, Associate Professor, and Denise Pope, Senior Lecturer, as they discuss the dynamic relationship between AI and education with opening remarks from Dan Schwartz, I. James Quillen Dean and Nomellini & Olivier Professor of Educational Technology.
