Discover how AI can revolutionize personalized learning for gifted students in our upcoming QAGTC South session.
Gain insights into the fundamentals of AI technology and its potential to tailor educational experiences. While exploring the benefits of AI customization, attendees will understand the importance of mitigating risks through input/output guard mechanisms.
Limited hands-on demonstrations will provide valuable techniques for steering AI interactions effectively. Participants are recommended to bring their own devices and mobile hotspots to engage in these interactive segments. Having a Gmail account ready for OAuth purposes is also advised. Due to time constraints, the hands-on segments may be relatively short.
By the end of the session, educators and parents will be equipped with a practical framework to thoughtfully integrate AI as a complementary tool, amplifying learning opportunities for gifted students while critically addressing AI's limitations.
This session strikes a balance between harnessing AI's potential and navigating its responsible use, empowering participants to leverage this transformative technology in nurturing gifted minds.
