RECENTOUTREACH

Every session is free to the school or organization hosting it, and every one is taught by high school students rather than adults. We have found that matters more than any part of the curriculum: a fifteen-year-old will admit to a seventeen-year-old that they have been using AI to write essays, and that admission is where the useful conversation starts.

Sessions run thirty to sixty minutes and adapt to the room. We have taught classrooms, after-school clubs, and drop-in community programs where students arrived halfway through. What stays constant is the structure — open with a demonstration, let students test the tool themselves, then talk about what it got wrong and why that matters.

We deliberately do not teach AI as a list of tools to use or avoid. Tools change every few months; the underlying questions do not. How does this system produce an answer? What would it look like if it were wrong? Who is accountable when it is? A student who can ask those questions can handle whatever replaces today’s applications.

If you run a school, library, or youth program in the Cincinnati area and want a session, email us. There is no cost, no minimum group size, and no requirement that anyone involved knows anything about AI beforehand — that is rather the point.
