Join us for an illuminating session that delves into the intersection of Social Emotional Learning (SEL) and Artificial Intelligence (AI), with a focus on supporting key CASEL Framework competencies Social Awareness and Relationship Skills. We’ll explore the emerging role of AI chatbots in student mental health, covering everything from their basic mechanics to their potential impacts. Through real-world examples, you’ll gain insights into both the positive impacts and potential drawbacks.We’ll highlight the essential role of educators in guiding AI interactions to ensure they reinforce, rather than detract from, SEL goals. Participants will leave equipped with practical strategies for overseeing chatbot use, engaging students in meaningful conversations about AI’s influence on their development, and mindfully integrating AI as a supportive educational tool. Join us for interactive discussions that emphasize understanding AI’s social-emotional impacts, including success stories, challenges, and the growing role of AI in education.
