Curriculum update: Bayonne district staff outline professional development, AI committee and field trips
Summary
Dr. Degnan briefed the workshop on curriculum items: a first reading for regulation 5410, scheduled professional development, a rebranded lead program (formerly DARE), a proposed voluntary committee to study artificial intelligence in district operations, and this month’s field trips.
Dr. Degnan presented the curriculum portion of the workshop, summarizing items that will move through the board process and the district’s short-term programs.
Dr. Degnan said materials had been shared with committee members and the board secretary and listed items for the month: a regulation update for first reading (5410), professional development opportunities (A1), the lead program (A2, noted as the program formerly known as DARE), formation of a voluntary committee to evaluate artificial intelligence (AI) for district use (A3), and scheduled field trips (A4).
On the AI item, Dr. Degnan described A3 as a voluntary committee “to begin to look at artificial intelligence or AI” with interested staff and committee members, indicating the district aims to study AI’s implications before proposing formal policy. The curriculum packet and regulation update were provided to committee members in advance for first-reading consideration.
What’s next: regulation 5410 moves forward as a first reading; the district will stand up the voluntary AI committee and pursue the listed professional-development and field-trip items as part of the regular board process.
