This chapter invites readers into the evolving conversation around artificial intelligence (AI) in education by offering a rationale for collective sensemaking. As AI tools rapidly transform how we teach, learn, and work, individuals across educational settings are encountering these technologies with varying levels of readiness and trust. AI education remains a new and contested terrain—marked by hype, misinformation, and uneven access. This book begins by acknowledging that complexity and suggesting multiple entry points into the topic, spanning conceptual, historical, theoretical, empirical, and practical approaches.
