What Should Be Taught at the High School Level in 2026–27

AI literacy + applied workflows (not "model training math"). Each module includes focused labs with verification and documentation.

1

AI Basics + Responsible Use

What AI is/isn't, where it fails, what students are responsible for (agency, ethics, classroom norms).

SAMPLE LAB:

"AI output triage" — fact vs opinion vs invention

2

Prompting as Workflow (not magic words)

Goal/constraints → plan → generate → critique → revise.

SAMPLE LAB:

"Rewrite + constraints challenge" — tone, audience, length, rubric

3

Verification & Source Trace

Hallucinations, citing sources, confidence labels, "what would prove this wrong?"

SAMPLE LAB:

"Claim ledger" — every claim mapped to a source or flagged unverified

4

Media Literacy: Deepfakes, Manipulation, Misinformation

How AI changes content trust; detection habits; provenance mindset.

SAMPLE LAB:

"Misinformation audit" — students verify a viral claim with a checklist

5

Data & Privacy Basics (Student-Safe)

What data is, what you should never paste, privacy risks, school policy norms.

SAMPLE LAB:

"Redaction + safe prompting" — turn a sensitive prompt into a safe one

6

Bias, Fairness, and Real-World Impacts

How outputs can be unfair; evaluating harm; inclusive language; stakeholder thinking.

SAMPLE LAB:

"Bias check" — compare outputs, identify assumptions, propose fixes

7

AI for Learning (without cheating)

Using AI as tutor/coach: study plans, explanations, practice questions, feedback loops.

SAMPLE LAB:

"Tutor protocol" — student designs an AI tutoring plan + verifies correctness

8

AI for Work & Life Skills

Email, resumes, interviewing, planning, entrepreneurship basics, productivity workflows.

SAMPLE LAB:

"Career artifact pack" — resume bullet rewrite + cover letter + verification

9

Mini Projects (choose-your-track)

Tracks: ELA, history, science, business, CS/CTE.

SAMPLE PROJECT:

"AI-assisted research brief" with verification and reflection

10

Capstone Portfolio + Oral Defense

Portfolio submission + 5-minute walkthrough demonstrating integrity and real understanding.

CAPSTONE:

Student presents portfolio + defends work with process documentation
