## Resource

With the school year ending, all over the country educators and parents are taking stock of the drastic shift caused by artificial intelligence in the classroom. Today, Natasha Singer, a technology reporter, discusses the year that reshaped American classrooms and how one dedicated teacher helped his students chart their own path into an uncertain future. Guest: Natasha Singer , a technology reporter for The New York Times. Background reading: Teachers say they want to equip high school students to drive A.I. , rather than be mere passengers steered by chatbots. A.I. companies are urging teachers to prepare students for an “A.I.-driven future.” The American Federation of Teachers recommended “no screens” at all for those in second grade or younger, and no A.I. chatbots for students in elementary school.
