AI @ TC
TC Stance
Teachers College is taking a thoughtful, deliberate, and proactive approach to generative AI, while recognizing the disruption AI is causing across higher education. Given that research on the impact and role of AI in society is still in the early stages, we pair careful evaluation with playful, hands-on experimentation as we look ahead to the future of education.
Our Approach
Our approach is grounded in equity: weighing algorithmic justice, ethics, access, and environmental impact alongside curiosity. Our objective is to counter inflated claims and popular misconceptions through an independent stance and transparent methodology, helping professionals in our fields separate signal from noise while giving them room to explore what AI can, and can't, do for their work.
