Staff ask for clearer guidance and training as AI tools enter classrooms
Summary
Staff told the district they need clearer rules and hands-on training for classroom uses of AI; administration noted a district email about AI interest and cited DPI and CESA resources already available.
District staff used the Sept. 15 staff-rep meeting to raise questions about classroom and staff use of artificial intelligence tools. Participants said they want clarity on what classroom uses are acceptable, practical demonstrations of available tools, and guidance on how to teach students to use AI responsibly. Notes state: 'At the elementary- there is a sense that we don't know what's available through AI.'
District Administrator Mitch Wainwright reported he had emailed staff asking who is interested in AI resources and training. The meeting record notes existing resources in the district: a special-education tool ('Goal Book') used for IEP goal writing, ChatGPT, Brisk for adjusting reading levels, Tech Tuesday sessions from Jake at CESA 6, and a DPI guidebook on AI. Staff said roughly half had not yet used AI tools and asked for demonstrations and privacy guidance from the technology vendor.
