Join us for the fourth talk in The Ethical Dimension of AI Literacy series. In this session, Mona Sloane, Assistant Professor of Data Science and Media Studies and founder of Sloane Lab, will be joined by Sloane Lab researchers Owen Kitzmann and Celia Calhoun for the following talk:

Digital tools and AI increasingly shape how students learn, yet students are rarely included in decisions about the technologies that affect them most. This talk introduces the Student Technology Council (STC) as a practical model for bringing student voices into campus technology and AI governance. Drawing on the research and design of UVA's STC, the presentation shows how structured student participation can inform decisions about educational technologies, data practices, and classroom AI use. The talk highlights how STCs can strengthen trust, improve instructional innovation, and support more transparent and ethical approaches to campus technology.

All are invited to register and attend. For questions, please contact Meridith Wolnick (maw2tj@virginia.edu) or Bethany Mickel (bethanym@virginia.edu).
