NAMLE Pre-Conference - Media Literacy in the Age of Algorithms, Big Data & AI
NAMLE Pre-Conference events are daylong stakeholder conversations designed to explore core areas where media literacy education is playing a critical role. We invite you to join us for our Pre-Conference Think & Do: Media Literacy in the Age of Algorithms, Big Data & AI on Monday, June 26 from 9AM - 1PM.
This half-day workshop is a creative exercise during which researchers, industry professionals, and educators will come together to brainstorm and reflect on the intersections of human + machine.
The use of Artificial Intelligence (AI), machine learning, and deep learning have begun to appear more frequently in news and websites. AI promises high levels of accuracy and offers opportunities to relieve humans from menial work, freeing us to live life to the fullest.
However, AI also raises ethical considerations common to the media literacy world. It is incumbent upon us, as media literacy educators, to look closely at our relationships with such applications and the values we place on them. In this workshop, we will tackle real-world problems to better understand what AI is, explore the values and ethical norms of AI, and discuss how these important topics relate to work in classrooms and the future of media literacy.
We hope you will stay and join us for the NAMLE Conference Engaging Citizens, Building Community on June 27-28, 2017 also at Roosevelt University.
