Ai For All Panel Discussion

Wednesday, May 3rd

Recording & Chat

Watch our fellow Computer Science enthusiasts share their thoughts in AI for All panel discussion! The panel consist of Vermont educators working with AI or thinking about AI in their schools.

Panel Members:

Elementary, Adam Brua - Technology Integrationist

Middle School, Ryan Dudley - Educational Technology Integrationist

High School, Charlie MacFayden - Digital Learning Leader

Leadership, Patricia Aigner - Chief Inspiration Officer

The conversation around AI is all around us.

Looking for a way to start the conversation with your peers? Start by viewing this conversation starter slide deck - AI - Tool or Trouble developed by University of Vermont graduate students Ryan Dudley and Maddy Pimental. Ryan is a Technology Integration Specialist at Essex-Westford Supervisory Union, and Maddy is a graduate assistant at the University of Vermont. Their slide deck offers an interactive tour stimulating conversations with Chat GPT and prompts for discussing Artificial Intelligence in schools and higher education. The interactive was created as part of a project for the UVM EDCI 325 course (Leadership and Technology) and used to start conversations about AI with educators in Vermont schools.
