Be the Boss of AI
Monday January 20, 2025 9:15am - 10:45am EST
Oliver, Room 213
Generative artificial intelligence and AI chatbots have captured the public’s imagination in remarkable ways. This workshop turns the tables on our AI overlords and puts kids in-charge. Learn how chatbots may be used in playful ways to create, learn, write better, solve problems, and develop critical thinking skills. Mind-blowing project ideas and tools will be shared to enhance learning long after this unique workshop.

Learning Objectives:
1. Become aware of indispensable AI tools for the classroom that are not chatbots.
2. Appreciate ways in which AI may be used to amplify the creative and intellectual potential of each learner.
3. Using AI as a partner in programming, writing, video editing, and oral communication.

Lights, Camera, Learn: Enhancing Science Assessments with Video Production
Monday January 20, 2025 1:45pm - 2:45pm EST
Oliver, Room 213
In this workshop, participants will acquire practical knowledge that will empower them to incorporate video production as a creative and engaging form of assessment in their classes. They will be guided through the video production process, starting with brainstorming and storyboarding, followed by script writing, filming, and editing using tools like iMovie. Participants will explore examples of video assessment use in life science classes and consider how they could apply similar approaches to their subjects. Additionally, they will review example rubrics and design their own, tailored to their specific learning goals. In small teams, participants will have hands-on time to plan, film, and edit a short video, which they will share during the workshop. Afterward, we will discuss the successes and challenges of the process, brainstorming ways to adapt it to fit different classroom settings. By the end, participants will leave with practical ideas and tools to confidently implement video production assessments in their curricula.

Learning Objectives:
1. Understand and explore the video production process: Participants can identify and apply the key steps of video production, including planning, filming, and editing. Participants examine examples of video production used for assessments in life science classes and brainstorm ways to apply this technique to their subjects.
2. Collaboratively create a video and design a rubric for video assessments: Working in small groups, participants will plan, film, and edit a video during the workshop to experience the entire creation process hands-on. They will also create personalized rubrics that align with their specific instructional goals, allowing them to assess student-created videos effectively.
3. Evaluate the process and refine their approach: Participants will reflect on what worked well and what challenges arose, discussing strategies for adapting video production to different classroom environments.
By the end of the workshop, participants will have concrete ideas and tools to integrate video production confidently into their science assessments.
