What the Best AI Literacy Guidebooks Get Right

Monday, April 20, 2026 @ 9:00 am - 10:00 am PST

School districts everywhere are creating AI guidance, but what practices are emerging as the most effective?

In this edWebinar, join Jennifer Ehehalt and Sue Thotz from Common Sense Media as they explore the common patterns appearing across AI literacy guidebooks from districts across the country. Instead of focusing on individual districts, this session curates the best ideas that are rising to the top and highlights practical approaches that schools are using to build responsible, confident AI use.

Attendees will explore a simple framework that brings together building clarity and shared expectations, growing educator confidence through professional learning, teaching students how to question and use AI responsibly, creating common language through competencies and rubrics, and communicating with families to build trust.

Whether your district is just beginning or already experimenting with AI, this session will offer practical structures you can bring back to your school tomorrow. This edWebinar will be of interest to K-12 teachers, librarians, and school leaders.
