Meeting the Challenges
Parents have challenges ahead as AI continues to change how students are presented with their various lessons in school . Parents don ’ t have to face these challenges alone . Teachers are looking for parents to support these changes and are willing to help them do so . It is important that teachers and parents work together to teach digital citizenship , which will help students with any AI resources . It is particularly important because “ Kids also don ’ t realize how data collected about them now may influence things like jobs , insurance rates or mortgages for years to come .” ( Fisher-Tully , 2023 ) So , being a mindful digital citizen will benefit students now and in the future . Parents and teachers will also need to help students switch from a grade mindset to a mastery mindset . “ Research has shown that when more attention is paid to the value of the content and the learning process over grades , rates of plagiarism drop .”( Fisher-Tully , 2023 ) When parents and teachers work together to help students become good digital citizens , they will all reap the benefits that AI can bring to the classroom .
