POWAY, Calif. - As artificial intelligence becomes part of the technological landscape, the Poway Unified School District decided to embrace AI this school year rather than fight against it.
Back in August 2023, ABC 10News met with Poway Unified officials as they launched their"Digital Citizenship" initiative, treating AI like any other technological advance that has come along. They compared it to computers, the internet, and cell phones, which are now all vital tools in education. The district spent the last year offering teachers in person, online, and self-guided lessons in AI and Digital Citizenship. It focused on four main concepts: digital footprints, online security, balance and bias, and digital literacy. Fousek says getting everyone on the same page with that made the transition to AI easier.
Reyes says Canva's"Magic Studio" can translate lessons, break down information based on depth of knowledge or grade level, summarize lessons, create notes, or pull out key vocabulary terms and concepts from long passages in a matter of minutes. It's work that would traditionally take her as long as a half hour or more.
