Introduction
A teacher wants to use AI to draft feedback for student writing, a coach wants AI to summarize a PLC discussion, and an administrator wants AI support drafting a family message. Each request sounds reasonable, and each one raises a similar question: What is safe and appropriate to delegate, and what must remain a human responsibility?
This module helps you make those calls consistently and explainably. You practice classifying tasks by fit and risk, choose oversight and privacy defaults that match the situation, and translate your values into a shared AI Use rubric for classrooms and staff. The goal is a repeatable decision routine that supports confidence and trust across roles.
Learning objectives
Upon completion of this module, you'll be able to:
- Classify common educator tasks based on whether AI support is appropriate, appropriate with oversight, or not appropriate.
- Identify what must remain a human responsibility for a task, including final decisions, context, and relationships.
- Select practical oversight checkpoints that match the risk level of a task.
- Draft clear privacy-minded defaults for what data can and can't be shared with AI tools.
- Create an AI Use rubric for classroom and staff contexts that makes expectations visible.
