Parents/Caregivers

Human-Centred AI for Parents and Caregivers

AI is no longer coming. It is already part of how children learn, search, write, create, communicate, and prepare for their futures.

Many parents are trying to understand AI at the same time their children are already using it. That can feel overwhelming.

This session helps parents move from confusion to clarity, and from worry to practical guidance.

You do not need to become an AI expert. But you do need to become part of the conversation.

Human First. AI Second

AI can help children explain ideas, study, brainstorm, organize thoughts, and get unstuck. But AI can also weaken learning when it does too much, too soon.

This parent session helps families understand the difference in a calm, practical, and encouraging way. The focus is not fear, panic, or heavy tech language. It is simple guidance parents can use at home.

Parents will learn:

• What AI is, in plain language
• How children may already be using AI at school and at home
• How to tell when AI supports learning and when it replaces learning
• How to talk about AI without panic, accusation, or shutdown
• How to help children use AI for learning without losing effort, honesty, or their own voice
• Simple family habits for checking information, setting expectations, and knowing when to involve a trusted adult
• How AI can affect well-being, confidence, privacy, relationships, and real-world connection

A message for parents/caregivers:

AI can answer a child. But it cannot raise a child.

Children still need parents, caregivers, teachers, coaches, mentors, and trusted adults to help them build judgement, confidence, honesty, and responsibility.

This session gives parents practical language, conversation starters, and simple tools they can use right away.

Format: 60-minutes plus Q&A (Zoom or in-person).
