AI UpskillHuman learning in an AI age

WORKSHOPS & EXAMPLES

For educators.
For curious young people.

Two starting offers, adapted to your learners and setting. The examples below show the work we could develop with you.

Proposed offers and illustrative materials. These sessions have not been piloted.

FLAGSHIP 01 / EDUCATORS

Teaching and learning
in the age of AI.

Work through a teaching example, question its assumptions and adapt an activity from your own subject. Examine what learners need to practise and where AI assistance might help.

A QUESTION TO WORK ON

“If AI can produce a correct answer, how will I check what the learner understands?”

Discuss a session for your team
Who it’s for
Teachers, school and college leaders, and learning designers.
The challenge
Making decisions about AI while developing independent thinking and preserving teacher judgement.
What participants explore
AI feedback, learning task design and the evidence needed to judge understanding.
What they take away
An adapted task or a reasoned teaching decision, with a plan to try it.
Possible format
A staff workshop, half-day or full-day INSET, online session or short CPD programme. Scope agreed with your team.

FLAGSHIP 02 / YOUNG PEOPLE

The
Curiosity Lab.

A proposed workshop in which young people investigate a question together. They decide what they need to find out, develop an idea and explain their choices.

AN ILLUSTRATIVE STARTING QUESTION

“How could we make our school grounds more welcoming to wildlife?”

Learners might sketch or model a proposal and compare it with the evidence they find. AI can offer suggestions for them to question, where the facilitator judges it useful.

Discuss a lab for your learners
Who it’s for
Children and young people in schools or enrichment settings. Age range and grouping agreed with the host.
The challenge
Giving learners time to ask questions, think critically and develop ideas with others.
What participants explore
A shared problem, different explanations and ways to test or improve a proposal.
What they take away
A group proposal or prototype, with a record of the questions and evidence behind it.
Possible format
For discussion: a 90-minute workshop or half-day lab, adapted to the group and setting.

INSIDE AN EDUCATOR WORKSHOP

Try a short
teaching example.

These extracts show how we frame a question and examine a teaching decision. The full facilitated sessions include paired discussion and work on participants’ own practice.

30-MINUTE SESSION / EDUCATORS

When AI can produce the answer

A correct maths submission leaves uncertainty about a learner’s understanding. Choose what to check, then consider how to redesign the task.

Short preview
About 3 minutes
Workshop output
A revised task and a short plan for trying it with learners.

45-MINUTE SESSION / EDUCATORS

Deciding where AI belongs in teaching

Two feedback drafts respond differently to pupils’ science explanations. Examine them and decide what a teacher would need to check.

Short preview
About 5 minutes
Workshop output
A reasoned decision with a defined scope and conditions for stopping or reconsidering.

Another example: reviewing a lesson plan

A 5–8 minute professional development activity for educators. You review a fictional AI lesson draft on condensation, choose what to check and respond to a pupil’s explanation. It illustrates the decisions we could explore in a facilitated session.
