With the release of the university’s policy on the use of AI, and as we all start to explore the potential of generative AI, this two-part seminar provides an introduction to AI and how it is being used in schools. Over these two seminar sessions Andrea will share a workshop she conducted with local teachers with a focus on -

• Unpacking what generative AI is and its potential for use in
education.
• Exploring the use of AI tools to help with planning literacy
(writing) lessons.
• Looking at some AI tools and ideas that teachers can use with
ākonga to support writing.
• Discussion around the benefits and challenges of using AI in our
teaching practice.
