Is Our Children Learning?* AI Edition
Doors open at 11:30 and presentations start promptly at Noon.
Are you curious about how AI can transform your business and career? Join us at the VIATEC AI Meetup.
Everyone is welcome.
Do you want to know what’s really going on with AI in schools and what it means to students, parents, and employers?
Join us for this briefing from Peter Scott of the Centre for AI in Canadian Learning.
What are the top issues facing secondary education, and what are the threats to students’ learning? What’s really happening to their job prospects, and what can parents and employers do about it?
This session will be grounded in experience both local and international with high schools and what’s happening with issues like homework, risks vs benefits of AI for learning and retention, and career paths. We’ll look at where the latest research offers some solutions, and questions you should ask schools.
Feel free to grab a bite at the Fort Cafe, located on site.
