Module3: AI Literacy for Equity-Focused Education

AI is already in your school. The question is not whether it will affect your students it is whether you will have a voice in how. This module grounds you in the 4 Ps Framework for Purposeful AI Integration™, the practical leadership application of Liberation Innovation Framework Experience™ (LIFE). You will examine AI tools critically, build liberation-centered AI literacy for yourself and your students, and develop the advocacy language to influence AI decisions at every level you have access to. Justice is not a theme in this module. It is the standard everything is measured against.
