Warm-up

Mapping Connection

AI Literacy

From aiEDU

Think about a typical day.

When do you feel most connected to others?

When do you feel least connected?

Last year at a DTAC we did a sorting exercise focused on Ai and "Is it Cheating"? It garnered a lot of discussion in our groups with a variety of perspectives~ it was illuminating for the educators in the group who realize the need to be specific about with is allowed, and what is not and understand there is a gray area, especially depending on the learning objective.

Today we will do a quick warm-up designed by aiEDU, a group we are working with for a framework, curriculum and professional development. It is designed for high schoolers to do a quick discussion and engage in some thoughtful reflection. In this case not about academic honesty, but about human connection.

Part I: Create Your Graph

3-4 mins

Mapping Connection

Plot Your Day: Create a line graph showing when you felt more or less connected to others.
Label Peaks and Valleys: What was happening at high and low points?
Mark Tech Use: Highlight when you used technology (note the apps)

x

Say: "First, you'll create a visual map of your connection levels over one day this past week. Look at the handout. The vertical axis is 'How Connected You Feel,' and the horizontal axis is 'Time of Day'."

Say: "Use one color pen. Plot points on the graph to show how connected you felt at different times, from waking up to going to sleep. Connect the points to make a line graph."

Say: "Next, label the highest points (peaks) and lowest points (valleys) on your graph. Add short notes explaining what was happening during those moments – where were you, who were you with, what were you doing?"

Say: "Now, take your second color pen. Go back over your graph and highlight the moments when you were using technology. Next to these highlighted parts, write down the specific apps or tools you were using and what you were doing with them. Think about social media, games, streaming services, communication apps, homework tools – some of these might use AI."

Look For: Students accurately plotting points, labeling peaks/valleys with context, and identifying/labeling technology use with a different color.

Part III: Define Lessons

3-4 mins

Mapping Connection

As a group:

What are common connection / disconnection times?
How might graphs look different before smartphones?
Which apps helped or hurt connection?
What’s one tech change you’ll make this week?

Mapping Connections

Our sense of connection shifts naturally from moment to moment.

Tech and AI can impact these shifts in positive and negative ways.
