Implementing AI Literacy in Your School or District: A Guide to Getting Started
Updated: 1 day ago

Building AI literacy starts with equipping educators and leaders with the knowledge and confidence to take the first step without disrupting learning.
That’s why BrainPOP and Digital Promise have partnered to help schools and districts move towards practical action—from BrainPOP’s AI Literacy collection to bringing experts and district leaders together to share what AI literacy, implementation, and governance actually look like in practice.
This is your starting point: classroom-ready resources, practical guidelines and frameworks, and real-world examples from those already doing this work.

Bringing AI literacy into the classroom

Students have questions about AI. Those questions belong in the classroom. BrainPOP's AI Literacy Collection gives teachers a way to teach them—with movies, classroom resources, and family guides to teach and discuss AI literacy with confidence.
Building an AI policy that works
When building an AI policy for your school or district, there's no one-size-fits-all approach. So, we turned to Digital Promise experts and experienced district leaders to share frameworks, examples, and resources to show what responsible AI governance looks like in practice.

Watch: AI literacy in practice

This school year, BrainPOP and Digital Promise partnered to host a two-part webinar series showing what AI literacy and AI policy actually looks like in schools and districts today. Each conversation centered on what's working, what isn't, and what every educator needs to know right now when it comes to AI literacy implementation and governance.
What Does AI Literacy Actually Look Like in Classrooms?
If you're a teacher trying to figure out where AI literacy fits in your practice, a curriculum leader evaluating your district's approach, or an administrator who wants to move from reactive to intentional—this one's for you.
AI Policies for Schools and Classrooms: A Practical Guide for Educators and District Leaders
The question isn't whether your school needs an AI policy; it's whether the one you have (or don't have) is actually working. BrainPOP and Digital Promise are joined by district leaders to discuss what good AI policy actually looks like on the ground.
