Connecting Classroom Math to AI — NCTM New Orleans

I’m excited to be presenting Connecting Classroom Math to AI at the upcoming NCTM meeting in New Orleans. I think math teachers are uniquely positioned to help students develop healthy, productive, and realistic attitudes toward artificial intelligence tools by making that these tools are understood as applications of mathematics.

Here’s the session description:

Artificial Intelligence tools are everywhere and are likely to affect our lives in profound and lasting ways. To help prepare our students for an AI-driven future, let’s make sure they recognize that these tools are fundamentally applications of mathematics. In this session, we’ll see how topics from the MS/HS curriculum lead directly to the math that underlies technologies like LLMs, chatbots, and more, and we’ll discuss how to make these connections clear and compelling for our students.
