Bridging the Gap: AI in Education
Start
A faculty meeting
Teachers at Brentwood High School gathered for their morning meeting to discuss AI in education. With growing class sizes and teachers' concerns over increasing workloads, AI training was proposed to help plan lessons and create activities. Some staff saw it as a helpful tool, but not everyone agreed. Tension over the changes led to workplace incivility.

A Differing of opinions
Miss Evans, a veteran teacher, preferred her traditional methods. Mr. Blake, a newer educator, supported using AI to simplify his planning and feedback. Their disagreement highlighted a bigger issue: respect and communication during technological change.

A Differing of opinions
Miss Evans rolled her eyes as Mr. Blake was asked to share his recent success using AI with the faculty. After he was finished Miss Evans stood up and said...

Both sides of the coin
Her dismissal came with a sharp tone that raised the tension in the room. The Assistant Principal, Miss Reily, continued the meeting by saying...

What action should Miss Evans take?
Option B: Miss Evans agrees to test AI, learning from Mr. Blake.
Option A: Miss Evans refuses to work with Mr. Blake and try AI.
A Differing of opinions
A few days later, Miss Evans receives instructions from Mr. Blake on how to prompt AI to create lessons and activities. She hesitates but tries out the prompts. After she gets some AI output, she is impressed but thinks to herself...
Next
Miss Evans is unsure if she should use the AI plans or stick to her own. What should she do?
Option B: Miss Evans ignores the AI plans and sticks to her traditional lesson plans.
Option A: Miss Evans uses part of the AI plans while keeping her traditional approach.
A New challenge
A month later during the next staff meeting, Miss Evans is asked to share her experience with AI. She mentions the time it has saved her, yet she has used it in her unique way to maintain her teaching style. Still, some veteran teachers express concerns about losing their personal touch or becoming too reliant on technology.
Next
What should Miss Evans do after hearing the other teacher's concerns?
Option B: Acknowledge the concerns and explains that AI is a tool to support teachers, not replace their creativity.
Option A: Dismiss the concerns and tells the staff to adopt AI without addressing their fears.
Feedback
Lets reconsider
Refusing to try AI blocks potential growth and worsens workplace incivility. It signals that collaboration doesn’t matter, and seniority overrides innovation. This can discourage others from exploring new ways to improve their work.
Back to question
Feedback
Correct!
Agreeing to experiment with AI shows Miss Evans is open-minded and professional, even with reservations. Her willingness to collaborate with Mr. Blake shows her respect for other colleagues. Assistant Principal Miss Reily commends her flexibility in front of the faculty, bringing down the tension in the room. Now curious but still cautious, Miss Evans moves on to the next challenge: balancing her traditional methods with AI to try and maintain her authenticity.
Next
Feedback
Correct!
Using both the AI and her ideas lets Miss Evans keep her teaching style while saving time. She recognizes how AI can handle repetitive tasks, allowing her to focus on other areas like creativity and personalization. Her willingness to adapt proves to other veteran teachers that change doesn’t mean losing her identity or teaching style.
As Miss Evans uses more AI, her workload lightens, giving her more time to support students individually. Now, she must address concerns from other veteran teachers about the use of AI.

Feedback
Lets reconsider
Rejecting the AI plans limits improvement. Familiar methods feel comfortable, but ignoring new strategies may prevent her from shortening her planning time. This may also alienate Mr. Blake, who might feel his input isn’t valued.

Dismissing others’ concerns can worsen workplace incivility. Ignoring fears creates resentment and alienates colleagues. This leads to a negative work environment and worsens school culture, making collaboration difficult.
Back to question
Feedback
Correct!
By acknowledging concerns, Miss Evans shows respect and understanding. She can speak from her experience to help ease the fears of other teachers. Presenting AI as a supportive tool reduces fear and encourages more teachers to explore it without feeling threatened. This builds trust and improves the overall work environment.

What is AI?
AI is an interdisciplinary field that combines computing, cognitive science, statistics, and mathematics. Some key subfields of AI include machine learning and deep learning. Machine learning uses algorithms to allow systems to learn from data, while deep learning uses neural networks to mimic human intelligence.
What is AI prompt?
An AI prompt is a query or instruction that a user provides to an artificial intelligence (AI) system to generate a desired output. Prompts can be as simple as a word or as complex as a paragraph. The quality of the AI's output is directly influenced by the prompt, so it's important to write well-crafted prompts to get the desired results.
What is workplace incivility?
Workplace incivility is a type of behavior that violates workplace norms for respect and mutual understanding and is characterized by a lack of regard for others. It can include:
- Rude or discourteous behavior
- Insensitive words or actions
- Condescending or derogatory comments
- Interrupting others
- Not listening
- Dismissive body language
- Responding to phone calls in an impolite way
- Speaking abusively about another worker
- Sending a discourteous email
