How is AI changing the way we deal with disinformation in schools? In this workshop, teachers and educators will gain a deep insight into current AI-based tools and their potential—but also their risks—for educational work. With the help of research demonstrators and concrete application examples, we will reflect together on pedagogical opportunities and challenges. The results will be incorporated into a practical guide for professionals.

The workshop will be led by Isabel Bezzaoui. Bezzaoui is a research associate at FZI. In the Information Management & Analytics department, she is conducting research in the DeFaktS project on exposing and combating disinformation campaigns.

Who is the workshop for?
Teachers, educational professionals, and extracurricular educators with a focus on programs for middle and high school students are invited to attend.
