Step 1: Watch Video
Generative AI: How it works and what you should (and should not) do with it!
The purpose of the video will be to explain (at a very high level) how generative AIs work, and what you can tell from that about what they can be good at and how they fail. Using this - I will provide tips on good/safe ways to use it (it can be very helpful) and things to stay away from. Will conclude with the questions to ponder about the larger issues that this technology brings to our life and our future.
Step 2: Reflect On Learning
Provocations To Reflect and Discuss
What does this mean for core future skills?
What skills will we need to learn that will be useful?
What are the dangers of technology like this?
How can we protect ourselves?
What happens if only a few companies or countries control technology like this?
How does it affect the rest of us?
Step 3: Small Group Conversation and Capturing Ideas
Capture Thinking and Learning
Open up the slidedeck to the left
Find slide for your breakout session
Zoom to 50%
Use the shapes or create your own or use text boxes to add your personal thinking
While discussing in a small group create a mind map of thinking and learning
sort the idea
use lines and arrows to make connections
add notes and thoughts for others to learn from you
