#AI Books - Special Edition

#AI Books - Special Edition

Hi folks,

As I mentioned in last week's full newsletter due to other commitments, the next full newsletter will be next weekend, but I didn't want to leave you with nothing to read on a Saturday morning, so I thought I would share my condensed recommendations for good books for anyone in Education who is keen to upskill their #AI knowledge, get started or just be better informed of the benefits (and risks).


If there are others you think are worthy of a mention, do mention them in the comments with a link to them so they can be discovered too. Many of these sit on my bookshelf and are a mixture of practical application guides, alongside a few that are for "broader" educational thinking

Ok, let's, dive in ;)

Ok, clearly there were plenty more I could have added, but I reckon this is a really good starter to fill your AI bookshelf, and yes, that's exactly what I have done (see below) so I can vouch for most of the books I have shared from personal review.

If you want to broaden your reading even further, then I have an Amazon bookshelf of 200+ edu books that have been recommended by others and featured in my weekly newsletter. You can find all of these from here.

Short and sweet this week, but hopefully helpful.

Take care and enjoy,

Al & Ferdi.
