Birdville ISD AI in Education Position Statement

Empowering Learning with AI

In the Birdville Independent School District (Birdville ISD), we will strategically incorporate artificial intelligence (AI) to create an innovative and enriching learning environment that propels our students toward success now and in the future.

The Future of Jobs and AI

The World Economic Forum’s “Future of Jobs Report 2023” predicts that AI will drastically affect the job market in the next five years. In this report, AI and machine learning are the fastest growing fields, with a staggering 40% trajectory in the next five years, expected to create 1 million new jobs.

ÒÀÒÀÉçÇø's Commitment to Students

Our students are and will continue to engage with artificial intelligence in years to come. As such, we are responsible for empowering them to use new technology and tools to advance their learning and reach their potential as Empowered Learners, Responsible Citizens, Global Competitors, and Innovative Entrepreneurs, as outlined in the ÒÀÒÀÉçÇø Portrait of a Graduate.

Birdville understands the importance of an all-encompassing AI strategy to equip students and teachers for the challenges ahead, improve the educational experience, and ensure our school district stays ahead in an ever-changing educational environment.

We aim to ready our students for the evolving demands of the workforce and society, demonstrating our district's commitment to forward-thinking and offering an education that is both modern and relevant.

And while AI tools are invaluable, they cannot substitute the human touch in teaching or any other profession. AI can make processes more efficient, yet it necessitates the guidance and expertise of a professional to manage and optimize its use.
