Book overview
The EduProtocol Field Guide: AI Literacy Edition is an essential guidebook for educators navigating the questions of whether and how to incorporate AI in the classroom. Seasoned educators and technology specialists Kate Meyer and Nicole Davis make a compelling case that AI should neither be a force to be feared nor a crutch to be exiled. Rather, they argue, AI is best seen and implemented as a collaborator and thought partner for students and teachers alike.
Through fifteen detailed, innovative, easy-to-implement lesson frames or EduProtocols, the authors illustrate how educators can center not AI usage but AI literacy. Readers will come away from this book excited to bring AI into their classrooms and prepared to do so in an ethical, thoughtful, authentic, and engaging manner. AI is here to stay-and Meyer and Davis have the road map to make it work for you and your students.
