We are a collective of education organizations who are committed to the responsible, ethical, and effective implementation of AI in Arizona’s K-12 schools.
What do we believe?
We believe that responsible AI implementation can be an incredible agent of change in Arizona schools and classrooms if led by a true north star for student learning yet guided by the ethics that impact a just society. Our mission is anchored by the GenAI Guidance for Arizona Schools (Arizona Institute for Education and the Economy, 2024).
What do we do?
We address LEA needs with respect to responsible AI implementation. Five support structures frame our initial work together:
Guidance for education leaders regarding AI strategy, planning, and implementation
Information dissemination via an AI Alliance newsletter
Collaborative learning using a Community of Practice approach for those leading AI implementation
AI training and professional development opportunities for various roles within schools and districts
Advocacy for legislative policy that creates the conditions for responsible AI implementation in schools
How do we work together?
A few organizations within the Alliance serve as an “action team” who create the opportunities outlined in the five support structures. Other Alliance organizations support the mission by providing thought partnership & resources, and promoting the work through their communication channels.
