PD365/ISBE-ARTIFICIAL INTEL

Supports the principles put forth by Illinois ASCD/PD365 regarding the ethical and effective use of artificial intelligence in K-12 classrooms. Urges the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE), in collaboration with school districts, educators, technology experts, and stakeholder organizations, to develop statewide guidelines for the ethical and responsible use of artificial intelligence in education, including protections for student data, expectations for algorithmic transparency, monitoring for bias, and the incorporation of digital and AI literacy into Illinois curricula to ensure students can thoughtfully and ethically engage with emerging technologies. Encourages investment in educator professional development and equitable access to technology, including broadband infrastructure, one-to-one devices, and AI-enabled tools to ensure that all Illinois educators and students are prepared to use artificial intelligence responsibly, effectively, and fairly across all schools.
