Session description

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is all the rage, but terms of service and compliance with FERPA and COPPA can leave many AI tools out of reach for early education learners and teachers. AI for Littles will provide participants with no-to-low tech activities they can use to help our littlest learners explore the world of AI while maintaining safety and security.
