Apply by April 15\, 2024! \nWorkshop Description: These days\, educators at all levels are worried about technology in their classrooms. How can we help our students use it responsibly? How can we\, as teachers\, incorporate technology in our classrooms in ways that help students think about truth claims and the link between information and power? \nWhile AI and ChatGPT dominate today’s discussions about these issues\, concern about technology\, authenticity\, and authority have a long and global history. In this one-day virtual professional development workshop for educators at all levels\, our three speakers will explore 500 years of “big data”\, technology and political disinformation\, and people’s fascination with the idea of “automatic writing.” Apply here by uploading a resume\, short letter of interest\, and a sample assignment. \nThe event will feature three keynote talks from three experts engaged in cutting edge research on the themes of truth\, misinformation\, and technology in world history: Dr. Roopika Risam\, Dartmouth College; Dr. Elise Silva\, University of Pittsburgh; and Dr. Annette Vee\, University of Pittsburgh.
