A one-week workshop to learn about AI, create activities and lesson plans to take into your classroom, and build a network teachers interested in AI like you
The School of Computer Science is offering a week-long workshop, the 5th annual Crash Course in Artificial Intelligence along with a Learning Material Design Session to support high school educators looking to gain familiarity with AI and to offer AI-related educational activities to their students.
Our week-long workshop will cover an introduction to a broad range of artificial intelligence topics including:
- Large Language Models (ChatGPT, Gemini, etc)
- Machine Learning
- Broader AI Algorithms
- Human-AI Interaction
Each topic will include a hands-on activity to help you connect the topic to a real-world application. On the last two days, we will form teams of CMU faculty and teachers to work together to create AI-related activities for your classrooms. We will work directly with you to design and build short demonstrations you can use in your classrooms.
REGISTER Receive Act 48 Credits.
Teachers will gain:
- hands-on skills to implement and apply AI algorithms,
- access to all of the written materials and activities presented in the course,
- additional activities and content that they helped design to be tailored to their classrooms and their students’ interests,
- a professional network of Pittsburgh area STEM teachers and Carnegie Mellon faculty who can act as resources and collaborators for future projects.
