Cyberlite, with support from Microsoft, is introducing the newly expanded AI Classroom Toolkit: Unlocking Generative AI Safely and Responsibly. Whether educators are AI experts or just getting started, the toolkit offers a practical way to bring important conversations about AI safety and critical thinking into the classroom. The webinar will introduce new classroom-ready resources focused on critical thinking, verification, and media and AI literacy, along with the new What Type of AI User Are You? interactive quiz.
How do platforms, media, pressures, and possibilities in young people’s digital lives shape their well-being? Join the Collaborative for Advancing Healthy Experiences in Out-of-School Time (CAHE-OST) for a free virtual training during U.S. Media Literacy Week.
Together, we will explore youth-centered approaches to digital wellness and try a digital mapping activity that you can adapt to help young people reflect on their own media experiences.
The session will focus initially on middle and high school youth, with suggestions for adapting the activity for younger participants. We will also preview upcoming CAHE-OST professional learning experiences and resources on youth voice, media and AI literacy, healthy choices, and supportive adult practices.
