As Kern HSD bolsters literacy for all and continues to prepare graduates for the future, the rise of AI introduces new challenges and opportunities. How do we ensure students remain the authors of their own ideas while preparing them for a post-secondary world that expects AI literacy?
Join us for a session focused on bridging the gap between traditional academic integrity and the new era of AI. Whether or not your campus has access to Turnitin, this session is designed to meet you where you are.
We’ll move beyond AI detection to focus on the heart of the matter:
critical thinking. We recognize that AI readiness varies—not just campus to campus, but classroom to classroom. This hour is dedicated to providing flexible strategies that support every instructor’s comfort level.
What we will cover:- AI in your classrooms: Navigating the "pains" of AI and acknowledging the spectrum of readiness—from stopping misuse to leveraging AI as a thought partner.
- Future-ready students: Discussing how AI literacy directly impacts KHSD’s goal of graduation readiness for college and 21st-century careers.
- A toolkit for everyone: Access free, ready-to-use resources focused on transparency and student reflection. These are available to all attendees, regardless of whether your campus currently has a Turnitin subscription.
- KHSD spotlight: See how your peers are using our latest innovation, Turnitin Clarity to support their goals for AI literacy, and to build trust and transparency with students
