Back to School 2026
Your students are already using AI. AI literacy helps them understand it.
Your students aren't just asking how to use AI. They're asking whether to trust it, who owns what it makes, and what it actually knows. Those questions belong in your classroom—and now you have a way to teach them.
AI is already everywhere your students are
Students use AI constantly—in search, in homework tools, in the apps they use every day. But using and understanding are two different things. They’re asking questions about what it knows, how it knows it, and when to trust it.
“Does using AI mean I’m cheating?”
"How does using AI impact the environment?"
“Is it okay to talk to a chatbot?”
"Can I trust what AI tells me?"
AI literacy connects to the subjects you already teach
These AI questions are the ones students are already asking when they study the environment in science, learn about bias and misinformation in social studies, or think about authorship in ELA.
Teaching AI as part of those conversations—not apart from them—is what makes the difference between those who know what AI is and those who know how to evaluate what it tells them.
Built into subjects you already teach
Each movie lives inside an existing BrainPOP topic—so AI literacy shows up right where the questions do: in your science unit, your ELA lesson, your social studies discussion.
All in one place when you need the full picture
Every movie is also collected on a single AI Literacy page—so you can see all topics at a glance, plan across units, or explore the collection on your own terms.
Teacher and family resources included—no expertise required
Discussion guides for teachers and conversation starters for families are included—so whether the question comes up mid-lesson or at home, you don't need to be an AI expert to use them.
