BCPS launches new AI resource hub to help families understand artificial intelligence

Published

on

Broward County, Florida – Broward County Public Schools is giving families, students, employees and the wider community a new place to find information about artificial intelligence and its growing role in local schools.

The district has launched Broward Powered by AI, a centralized online resource designed to explain how BCPS is introducing artificial intelligence into education and other areas of its operations. The website is intended to serve as a one-stop source for information as the technology becomes more common in classrooms and throughout the school system.

The launch comes as schools across the country continue to examine how AI can be used in teaching, learning and student support while also addressing questions about responsible use. For BCPS, the new website provides a way to explain its approach and keep stakeholders updated as implementation moves forward.

“We understand that introducing a new technology can raise questions and concerns among District stakeholders,” said BCPS Superintendent Dr. Howard Hepburn. “Broward Powered by AI allows us to address those concerns by providing one source for answers, resources and information about why and how BCPS is adopting artificial intelligence.”

The new hub is designed to cover more than just the basics of artificial intelligence. Visitors can find information about how BCPS plans to use AI responsibly across the district, including its role in teaching and learning, day-to-day operations and services that support students.

The website will also provide updates as the district’s plans develop. Families and community members can follow implementation milestones and timelines to better understand where BCPS stands as it expands its use of the technology.

Another section focuses on AI tools that have been approved by the district. This gives users a central place to learn more about which technologies are permitted within BCPS and how they fit into the district’s broader approach.

The resource hub also includes guidance and answers to frequently asked questions. That information is intended to help people who may be unfamiliar with AI or who want to understand how the technology could affect students, teachers and school operations.

BCPS is also inviting members of the community to take part in the conversation. The website provides opportunities for people to submit questions, concerns and feedback to the district.

Information about upcoming AI-related events will be posted on the site as well, giving families and other stakeholders another way to stay informed.

The district said the resource is meant to remain a central source of information as its AI efforts continue to develop. Rather than relying on separate announcements and resources, BCPS is bringing information about the technology together in one location.

The website is available in multiple languages, including Spanish, Haitian-Creole and Portuguese, expanding access for families across Broward County.

As artificial intelligence continues to influence education, BCPS said the new hub will help make information about its use more accessible and transparent. Families can use the site to learn about district-approved tools, implementation plans, guidance and upcoming developments, while also having a direct avenue to raise questions or provide feedback.

The Broward Powered by AI website is available at browardschools.ai, where families, staff, students and community members can learn more about the district’s approach to artificial intelligence and follow future updates.
