Overview
About this Mini-Lesson
Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI)—such as OpenAI’s ChatGPT and DALL-E—can create original text, audio, and images in response to users’ questions and prompts. These programs can be used to spark students’ learning and creativity, but they can also be used to generate essays, artwork, or other content that students might submit as if it were their own original work. This mini-lesson helps students learn about what generative AI is and consider norms around how it should (or should not) be used in schools. Each activity can be used on its own or taught in any combination best suited to your students.
