Session description
Purpose & objective
The primary purpose of this forum is to empower higher education leaders and faculty members with the knowledge and skills required to influence and enact meaningful changes within their educational institutions. Specifically, this forum is designed to enable participants to inform considerations for changes in curriculum, professional learning approaches, and broader educational systems. We aim to foster a collaborative environment where participants can actively contribute to the development of a research agenda based on key insights derived from a paper released at the conference. We plan to take the data points from these conversations and further develop the AI frameworks
Outline
Introduction to the work, EPP pledge, and network:
Why the pledge is vital now and how it has mobilized a national conversation led by the U.S. Department of Education, ISTE, national EPP associations and EPPs to engage leaders to make systemic change in how we prepare future teachers. How this group has come together to work on AI
Breakout activities that inform takeaways to guide your EPP:
1) Self-evaluation of EPP progress towards addressing AI
2) Rotation 1: Review the key findings and discuss any shortcomings, areas of further research and highlights and problems of practice
3) Rotation 2: Discuss solution pathways for problems of practice and setting goal commitments for making progress by next school year
