AI Workshops for Teachers
Practical sessions to understand, apply, and teach the thoughtful use of artificial intelligence.
Explore the workshopsAbout the initiative
Learn to use AI in order to teach others how to use it.
These workshops are for teachers who want to understand artificial intelligence tools, apply them thoughtfully in their work, and better guide their students. The goal is not to ban technology, but to build the skills needed to use it well and recognize its limits.
Each workshop addresses one specific topic in a practical session of approximately two hours. Its content and level are defined; before delivery, we coordinate with the school to adapt examples, exercises, and emphasis to the teachers’ starting point.
Participation will be free for priority schools or schools serving vulnerable communities. Workshops may be held in person in Chile’s Coquimbo Region and online for schools in other regions of the country.
Workshop catalog
One clear topic and level for each need.
Each option is an independent session lasting approximately two hours. Schools can request the workshop that best matches their teaching team’s starting point and needs.
InitialIntroduction to AI for teachersA clear foundation for understanding what artificial intelligence is, what it can do, and where it needs human judgment.

How to participate
We begin by understanding the school’s needs.
We are preparing the materials and coordinating the first sessions. The interest list allows us to speak with each school before defining the workshop.
- 01
Register your interest
The school tells us which workshop it needs, where it is located, and who would participate.
- 02
Coordinate the session
We discuss the team’s starting point, delivery format, and the most relevant examples.
- 03
Prepare and deliver
We adapt the context of the experience and agree on a date for the workshop.
