Atlanta Public Schools Joins EDSAFE AI Policy Lab Network
Summary
Focused on fostering the safe and ethical use of artificial intelligence (AI) in educational settings, their work will be part of a nationwide network of similar policy initiatives. "I am thrilled to work alongside national leaders to build thoughtful, community-centered policies that not only protect our students and teachers but also empower them to confidently and responsibly engage with AI in ways that enhance learning and opportunity." Atlanta Public Schools AI Policy Lab will focus on drafting a position statement, building stakeholder engagement with their community by creating educational resources for teachers, students, and parents, and facilitating ongoing refinement to ensure policies are in sync with practical applications, with a particular focus on community, parent, and student engagement. This stack encompasses acceptable use policies, parent communication and consent guidelines, and professional development materials tailored to each districts needs. This collaborative effort is a significant step towards leveraging AI in education more effectively and aligned with the SAFE framework.
