Guidance for Administrators

As leaders within Chicago Public Schools, administrators play a critical role in overseeing the use and governance of Generative AI tools. In addition to adhering to all previously outlined guidelines applicable to all stakeholders and staff, administrators have additional responsibilities to ensure these tools are used ethically and effectively.

Enforcement and Oversight

Administrators are responsible for ensuring that staff and students comply with CPS’s GenAI guidelines. Take an active role in enforcing the guidelines, ensuring that any deviations are addressed promptly and effectively. This includes implementing corrective actions and disciplinary measures as necessary.

Incident Management

Administrators must be prepared to respond swiftly to any incidents of misuse or breach of GenAI guidelines. This includes investigating the issue, understanding the impact, and taking appropriate action to mitigate any negative consequences. Develop and maintain clear channels for reporting concerns or incidents related to GenAI use. Ensure that staff and students are aware of how and when to report issues.

Support and Resources

Ensure that staff have the necessary resources and training to use GenAI tools effectively and responsibly. This includes facilitating ongoing professional development and access to the latest educational technologies.
