Description
Join the National Girls Collaborative Project (NGCP) and experts from the field of artificial intelligence (AI) and education to gain the confidence and actionable tools you need to prepare youth for an increasingly AI-driven world!
AI education in afterschool and other out-of-school time (OST) settings, such as clubs and camps, is vital because it offers equitable access to future-ready skills, reaching students who may lack exposure during the school day. These flexible, informal learning environments are ideal for hands-on, project-based learning that demystifies AI and fosters critical thinking about its societal impact. Join NGCP for this timely webinar to learn how (and why) the integration of AI into OST settings is increasingly important in today's digital world. Guest speaker Karen Lang will share Technovation's resources on AI that can be used in afterschool and OST programs, and researcher Daniella DiPaola will share resources and strategies from the MIT Media Lab's Student Voices in AI curriculum. This webinar will provide attendees with essential knowledge, practical strategies, and curricular resources for effectively empowering youth with AI - you won’t want to miss it!
