Overview

This session explores how senior students can take ownership of their learning through AI. Using Fink’s Taxonomy of Significant Learning, it demonstrates how the right scaffolds help students build AI literacy, explore machine learning concepts, and then design their own project objectives, unit plans, and learning guides. By focusing on Caring, Connection, and Curiosity, students move from passive users to creative, ethical thinkers who direct their own learning. Participants will see how AI can transform classrooms into spaces where students lead with confidence, empathy, and purpose.
