Th is rapidly expanding\, new field of knowledge is impacting every aspect of our lives\, often in ways we do not see. This professional learning will help participants understand some of the almost invisible ways that AI ope rates in our lives\, the possibilities it creates and the ethical implicat ions that can lie behind the algorithms\, to enable them to create engagin g and innovative activities for students.\n\nIt will begin with an introdu ctory webinar which will investigate the AI concepts in mathematics (data and probability) and digital technologies (data\, digital systems\, defini ng problems). The webinar will provide participants with an opportunity to extend understanding of the principles that underpin AI and explore how s tudents can use AI in intriguing ways as part of classroom learning. Parti cipants will then be guided through an action research model to implement a unit of work in mathematics and/or digital technologies.\n\nAs part of t he action research cycle\, in small groups\, participants will be mentored through a series of three virtual one-hour workshops to design\, implemen t and evaluate a unit of work that embeds AI into student learning.\n\nYou will have access to a range of professional learning resources that inclu de:\n\n My Computer Brain Learning platform (interactive AI). This online platform has many interactive AI experiments\, suitable for primary and s econdary teachers to learn about AI and draw inspiration for classroom les sons. Selected lessons are accompanied by lesson plans\, co-developed with the Digital Technologies Institute and the Digital Technologies Hub.\n V irtual AI teacher professional development access for participants for sel f-directed hands-on AI learning\, such as: creating AI Models\, AI and con ventional programming\, ethics\, bias\, inner workings of AI and AI scenar ios with links to Mathematics.\n\nThis professional learning will run over two terms and will be offered virtually in Semester 1 and repeated with a new group in Semester 2. No prior knowledge of AI is expected\, and it is hoped participants will come to this professional learning curious about AI and beginning to wonder about the exciting possibilities for student le arning.\n\nSchools are invited to apply for this opportunity by completing an Expression of Interest. \n\nSemester 2 intake – Expression of Intere st is due by COB 10 June 2022.\n\nTarget audience – Mathematics and Digi tal Technologies Teachers\, F - Year 10\n\nDelivery mode – Zoom\n\nPrese nters – Dr Karsten Schultz\, Digital Technologies Institute\, and Monica Williams\, Senior Educational Consultant\, AISSA\nDr Karsten Schultz\n\nK arsten made a significant contribution (2019-2021) to the Digital Technolo gy Hub’s development of Artificial Intelligence Resources (lesson plans\ , curriculum mapping\, video explainers\, and a ten-part webinar series (F - Year 10).\n\nKarsten heads up the Digital Technologies Institute in Bris bane. He holds a PhD in Computer Science and a Bachelor in Electrical Engi neering\, with a focus on Software Engineering. In 2010\, Karsten created the Young ICT Explorers Competition and\, in 2014\, whilst working for NIC TA (now part of CSIRO)\, he founded the Bebras Australia Computational Thi nking Challenge\, which is part of the International Bebras Challenge.\n\n Karsten has been working in the Australian ICT and Digital Technologies sp ace since 1999 in an international Research and Development leadership pos ition. He has designed a computer processor\, builds artificial neural net works\, has 18 patents in his name and has a passion for making the invisi ble visible.\n \;\n\nFor registration enquiries please contact Rae Daw kins.\n\nZoom links will sent closer to the event.
