AI in K-12 Education

Artificial Intelligence is reshaping the education landscape for students, teachers, and administrators. To help prepare for this paradigm shift, URI has partnered with local educational organizations (CS4RI, RI Society of Technology Educators, & RI Computer Science Teachers Association) to provide a series of AI professional development workshops for K-12 educators.

These workshops are designed to equip educators with foundational knowledge and practical skills to effectively integrate AI into their classrooms and districts in a responsible way. Whether you are just beginning your journey with AI or have already started incorporating it into your teaching and personal productivity, these workshops will provide valuable insights and hands-on experiences.
