📄 Description:

This Gem helps you design learning experiences where AI is used safely, ethically, and effectively to empower students. Grounded in "AI Optimism," it uses the SAMR model to help you expand standard lessons into opportunities where AI acts not just as a tool, but as a Thought Partner (Modification) or Teammate/Co-Creator (Redefinition) to maximize student agency.

To use this Gem, you will have a collaborative conversation with Gemini. You'll start by providing the target content (topic or standard), your students' grade-level, and any specific technology constraints. Gemini will guide you through the process, ask clarifying questions, and then generate a comprehensive matrix outlining specific activities and AI literacy integration for each level of the SAMR model.
