Safe and Responsible Use?

AI is transforming education by enhancing learning through tools like chatbots, personalized platforms, and multimedia generators, moving beyond traditional classrooms. However, while these technologies offer convenience, they also present ethical risks such as copyright infringement, which this section addresses through real-world examples, checklists, and practical guidelines for responsible AI use.

Institutional (Organizational) Responsibility in AI

Organizations like schools or companies need to ensure their AI systems are safe, fair, and follow the rules. Here are some steps they can take:

 

1. Institutional Obligations in AI Adoption and Deployment

  • Ethical Compliance Committee:

    • Form a group of people (teachers, administrators, maybe even student representatives) to check if new AI tools are safe, fair, and legal before using them.
  • Ongoing Transparency Reports:

    • Share regular updates about where and how AI is used.
    • Explain the goals, data sources, and how well the AI is performing.

 

2. Policies to Prevent AI Misuse

  • Internal Regulation Development:

    • Create clear rules about AI usage, including what kind of data is collected and who is allowed to use the tool.
    • Specify what happens if someone breaks these rules.
  • Employee (Staff) Training Programs:

    • Provide regular training on AI ethics, privacy rules, and ways to avoid discrimination.
    • Make sure teachers and staff know how to use AI tools responsibly.

 

Example: How a School Could Adopt AI Responsibly

Scenario:
Sunrise High School wants to use an AI tutoring app to help students with math.

 

  1. Ethical Compliance Committee:

    • The school forms a small team of teachers, parents, and students.
    • They review the AI app’s features, checking if it respects student privacy (like not sharing personal data) and if it offers fair support to all students.
  2. Ongoing Transparency Reports:

    • Each semester, the school posts a short report on the website.
    • The report explains what data the app collects, how it helps students learn, and how well students are performing with AI support.
  3. Internal Regulations:

    • The school outlines clear rules:
      • The AI app cannot collect sensitive data (such as health details) without permission.
      • Only teachers trained in AI ethics can manage the app.
  4. Staff Training:

    • Teachers attend short workshops on how the AI works and how to protect student data.
    • They learn how to check for any signs of bias or errors in the app’s recommendations.
