AI Unplugged: The Hype and Hope in Education Futures addresses a comprehensive range of challenging and potential-rich scenarios for the integration of generative artificial intelligence into curriculum, instruction and assessment in schools. It does so from a critical perspective, seeing teaching and learning as an intensely human activity. AI can help but not replace the work that skilled, professional teachers do.

Many school professionals are concerned about the impact that AI tools will have on academic integrity, job security, teacher-student relationships, algorithmic bias, digital privacy and beyond, particularly as young learners become proficient in free-to-use tools and other AI resources. This book provides graduate students, teaching faculty and scholars of teacher education, as well as school and district leadership, with accessible background information, practical use cases and change management approaches pertaining to generative AI. Teacher unions will also gain insight into what their peers are doing regarding AI and the profession.

School professionals in training will come away with a substantive, evidence-based means of discovering and integrating AI in ways that accommodate common uncertainties and greater preparation to manage risks and lead change.
