AI Competencies Think Tank: What Do Students and Teachers Need to Know How to Do?

With the pace of change in artificial intelligence, how do school curriculum leaders know what we should be teaching our teachers in the coming years? What competencies should we pursue and what might mastery look like, if it exists? This think tank will help us all consolidate our collective research, experience, wonderings, intuition and thinking into a functional model we can use in our schools. We won’t start from scratch; there is plenty of material out there to stitch together, so bring yourselves and any level of prior knowledge to learn, contribute, and imagine.
