Artificial Intelligence: Guidance for K-12 Classrooms

This resource is designed to provide procedural guidance and instructional strategies to district leaders, school leaders, and classroom teachers on how to appropriately use artificial intelligence in schools. The guide starts with a definition of AI and explores its impact on the classroom. It also highlights how students, teachers, and administrators can leverage AI, and what factors should be taken into consideration when developing a policy for AI use.

North Carolina

The NC Department of Public Instruction’s guidance document has been developed to help education leaders adapt and implement generative AI responsibly in their schools and infuse AI Literacy into all grade levels and curriculum areas.

The state’s guidelines for AI Integration in K-12 are comprised of the following three key components.

1. Guiding Principles
2. Strategies for Success
3. Roles and Responsibilities

The state’s guidance provides support for the use of artificial intelligence across various roles in West Virginia PK-12 schools, catering to the needs of superintendents, district staff, educators, and support staff. The guidance intends to focus on effectively and safely integrating AI, especially generative AI technologies, in classroom instruction, school administration, and district operations, while aligning with existing West Virginia Board of Education policies. Additionally, the West Virginia Department of Education has developed a Canvas resource site that acts as a hub of materials and resources for school districts and educators. This site will be regularly updated alongside this guidance to ensure it remains a relevant and valuable resource.

Alabama

Artificial Intelligence is referenced in the 2018 Digital Literacy and Computer Science Course of Study spanning grades K-12.
