We’ve teamed up with OpenAI to launch a free, one-hour course for K-12 educators called "ChatGPT Foundations for K-12 Educators." This course empowers teachers to safely and effectively navigate AI, generative AI, and #ChatGPT in the classroom. Covering essential topics like AI fundamentals, data privacy, ethical use, and practical applications, it’s designed to provide educators with the tools they need to prepare students for the future of learning. Why is this important? 7 in 10 students already use tools like ChatGPT for schoolwork. Teachers need support to ensure student safety, privacy and academic integrity. Early pilots in schools, such as Agua Fria Union High School District, are showing promising results. This launch marks the first milestone in our broader partnership with OpenAI, announced earlier this year, which focuses on creating AI guidelines and educational tools for families, educators, and students. Educators, get started today: https://lnkd.in/gN5_zihH #AIInEducation #EdTech #TeacherResources #CommonSenseMedia #OpenAI #K12Education

Now, as KOSA is stalled in the House, and the The Wall Street Journal reports that Meta and Google have spent $90 million in lobbying efforts over the past three years (including efforts around KOSA), more questions are being raised around the role of lobbying shaping policies that impact kids' online safety.

In this episode, Mary and Cráneo discuss the challenges children face when trying to focus, how scientists measure attention, and why kids sometimes tune out their parents while watching TV. It’s a valuable conversation for educators, parents, and anyone interested in child development and the psychology behind attention.
