BEYOND THE NUMBERS: AI & DATA SCIENCE IN THE K-12 CLASSROOM

Thursday, October 17 | 4 – 5 p.m. PT / 7 – 8 p.m. ET

Join TGR Foundation and Databot for a fast paced 60-minute workshop as we explore the critical need for data literacy in the K12 classroom and some exciting ways to leverage AI for that purpose.

Data surrounds us and is being collected at an astounding rate.  It’s in the air we breathe, the loyalty card we use at the grocery store and the television shows we watch. AI consumes this extraordinary amount of information and uses it to solve problems and execute tasks.  Join us in this highly interactive workshop to experience several unique applications of AI in the K12 classroom while you have fun solving a data-rich mystery with your colleagues.  All participants will receive free software and lesson resources to take an exciting “Data Mystery” back to their classroom.

By joining this workshop, educators will:

  • Understand how data and AI intersect and the implications for student learning
  • Experience an interactive lesson focused on the application of AI in K-12 education
  • Leave with free resources in data and AI to take back to the classroom

DESIGN PROCESS IN ACTION

Thursday, November 14 | 4 – 5 p.m. PT / 7 – 8 p.m. ET

Join TGR Foundation as we take a deep dive into design thinking and discover how it can support students’ learning goals. A human-centered approach to problem-solving that begins with developing empathy for those facing a particular challenge, design thinking serves as a framework that helps to define problems, empathize with others, develop prototypes of possible solutions and hone those prototypes through multiple iterations until a viable solution is generated.

By joining this interactive workshop, educators will:

  • Explore the steps of the human-centered design process
  • Engage in an activity that incorporates elements of the Design Process
  • Reflect on the Design Process as a way to embrace inquiry
