Ask what students should deeply learn before incorporating GenAI into activities¶

Evidence · no claims cited

Description¶

The presentation proposes a sequence of design questions for educators considering generative AI: What conceptual knowledge or skills should students deeply learn; Can we incorporate GenAI tools and not deprive students of developing conceptual knowledge and skills; and Should GenAI tools be used to change student activities for learning. The strategy keeps learning goals ahead of tool adoption, on the premise that GenAI can help people finish tasks more quickly, not learn faster.

Design Implications¶

Context¶

Requirements¶

• educators must first identify the conceptual knowledge or skills students should deeply learn before introducing GenAI tools

Constraints¶

• the presentation warns against incorporating GenAI in ways that deprive students of developing conceptual knowledge or skills

Target Learners¶

• K-12 students
• educators
• district leaders

Target Learning Goals¶

• preserving deep conceptual learning while using generative AI tools
