Learning Goal
-
Students will understand that artificial intelligence (AI) is a rapidly developing technology that carries enormous potential benefits, but also poses significant risks to society, politics, and even national security.
CFR Education simulations invite educators and their students to step into the roles of decision-makers on the U.S. National Security Council (NSC) or UN Security Council (UNSC). Simulations help students develop critical thinking, persuasive speaking and writing, and collaboration skills while giving them hands-on experience grappling with the challenges of addressing today’s most pressing global issues.
CFR Education aims to close the global literacy gap in our country by providing accessible, accurate, and authoritative resources that build the knowledge, skills, and perspective high school and higher education students need to understand and engage with today’s most pressing global issues. Leveraging best pedagogical practices and Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) expertise, CFR Education’s supplemental resources teach complex global affairs and foreign policy issues to the next generation. Committed to supporting educators as they take on this crucial work, CFR Education offers two Ambassador programs, professional development events, and curated teaching resources, including lesson plans, essay and discussion questions, classroom activities, and sample syllabi.
