What does it take to design an AI workshop that goes beyond exposure—and actually builds student thinking?
In this episode of the Black-Liberation.Tech Podcast, Dr. Renée Jordan breaks down the how behind her Janiyah GPT workshop model—offering a behind-the-scenes look at how students learn to use AI as a thinking partner, not just a tool.
If you’re an educator, program director, nonprofit leader, or community-based organization responsible for delivering meaningful learning experiences, this episode gives you a practical framework you can apply immediately.
Because the challenge isn’t introducing AI. It’s designing experiences that are engaging, culturally relevant, and cognitively rigorous—without overwhelming your team.
Inside This Episode
- How to teach students to use AI as a thinking partner (not just for answers)
- A simple framework for writing stronger prompts: Context + Data + Action
- How to use Bloom’s Taxonomy to deepen student thinking with AI
- Why culturally responsive AI design increases engagement, confidence, and belonging
- Practical strategies for designing AI workshops that are:
- Hands-on
- Interactive
- Reflective
- Scalable across programs
Why This Matters for You
You’re not just introducing new technology. You’re responsible for ensuring that learning experiences:
