Artificial intelligence is already in your students' hands. The question is whether they'll use it with judgment - or just push the buttons.
Practical AI is a classroom field guide that teaches the thinking behind working with AI, not a list of features that will be obsolete by next term. Built around a single durable lens - judgment, honesty, scrutiny, and friction - every chapter pairs plain-English explanation with hands-on "Try This" practice and review questions, so students learn to question the tool rather than trust it blindly.
The Annotated Instructor's Edition gives you everything needed to bring the course into a classroom from day one. It carries the complete student text alongside:
- Answer keys for every review question and exercise
- Teaching notes and discussion prompts, chapter by chapter
- Both 16-week and 8-week pacing guides
- A "How to Use This Instructor's Manual" preface that maps the course to your schedule
Written for real classrooms - high school through college, and any program preparing students for a world where AI is a tool they'll be expected to use well - the field guide keeps the human firmly in the loop. The technology will keep changing; the judgment it teaches will last.
