Teacher Page
Good day, educators! The goal of this WebQuest is to get students thinking about how artificial intelligence (AI) functions in society. Students will explore the many uses, advantages, difficulties, and moral implications of AI technology through research and multimedia presentations. Deepening students' understanding of AI and its effects on society, encouraging inquiry and critical thinking, improving communication and presenting skills, and raising awareness of ethical issues surrounding AI are some of the goals. We advise going over the offered materials, becoming acquainted with the assessment standards, and setting up any equipment or materials needed for student presentations before putting this WebQuest into practice. As the implementation goes on, assist students in creating multimedia presentations, lead presentation sessions, and promote critical thinking about the ethical issues brought up.
Feedback will be given to students to help them improve their presentations, which will be evaluated according to criteria for innovation, presentation, and content. Offer extension activities to further investigate AI-related issues, such as research projects, discussions, or guest speakers. Please get in touch if you need help or if you have any questions.
