Artificial intelligence is transforming how we live, learn, and work. This presentation will help parents understand how AI is beginning to influence education and the ways students may encounter it during their learning experiences at Helix.
We’ll cover the Helix Student AI Guidelines, review expectations around academic integrity, and examine the broader impact of AI - from its potential to expand creativity and efficiency to the ethical concerns it raises. Discover how Helix is helping students develop the judgment and skills to engage with AI thoughtfully and responsibly while preparing for the future.
This event will be held in the ExL building (room 1600). Dinner will be provided from Submarina, please RSVP here for food ordering purposes.
Students and siblings are welcome to attend with parents/guardians. Helix students will get 1 hour of community service for attending.
Please park in the staff lot located at 7323 University, above the big H. This is the entrance from University & Yale (near Starbucks and the taco shop). ExL is located next to the Cafeteria. For translation services, click here.
