Description

The significance of inclusion in our society is what renders this presentation worthwhile. When learning is intentionally structured to be accessible to all, regardless of individual needs, it highlights the need to foster an inclusive learning community. This interactive workshop will show how AI-powered educational technologies can make learning accessible, adaptable, and empowering and the role of staff and faculty members in ensuring that materials/content are accessible. Live demos and hands-on activities will introduce speech-to-text apps, educational platforms, and AI reading devices for people with disabilities and disadvantages. Participants will better grasp AI's role in education, practical uses, and ways to advocate for appropriate AI integration in classrooms and learning settings.
