Education, Social Cohesion, and Democracy in the Age of AI

Mar. 26th, 2024

There are lots of reports and events about AI and AI and education–few if any have focused on what the emergence of AI means for social cohesion and preparing young people for democracy.

Educators and decision-makers alike will have to wrestle with how AI will interact with the competencies we expect for our learners, how we judge the quality of our educational investments, how to adapt educator practice, and policy. Join our conversation with educators and experts discussing these issues as well as the upcoming report, "Uncharted Waters: Education, Social Cohesion, and Democracy in the Age of AI."
