Symposium on Generative AI
SYMPOSIUM
Navigating Uncertainty, Embracing Possibility: AI in Independent Schools
Monday, December 4, 2023
8:30 a.m.—2 p.m.
The Loomis Chaffee School, Windsor, CT
In response to the evolving landscape of education and generative AI, educators have faced many challenging questions.
This symposium is designed to help us continue to seek innovative solutions to those questions and to shed light on the paths we have taken to address the uncertainty of the relationship between AI and education.
Through case studies presented by colleagues from peer schools and workshops facilitated by Loomis Chaffee teachers, we’ll explore the exciting possibilities of AI while providing practical insights to help bridge the gap between uncertainty and possibility.
This is a free event. Coffee, a light breakfast, and lunch will be provided.
Call for Proposals
We aim to share real-world applications of AI in education. Therefore, we are looking for case studies in the following areas:
-
Policies and procedures your school or department has designed and implemented
-
Changes to classroom practices (essay and lab writing, homework, etc.)
-
Professional development for faculty
These case studies should explore the problem you seek to solve, the changes you implemented, and the results of those changes. Case studies should prompt further discussion among participants.
