AI for School Homefun pack · ages 15–18 · for parents · screens, together
The Big Questions
In a few years they decide everything alone. This pack uses the time you have left the only way that works at this age: as equals. Make a coursework deal together and sign it, let your teenager teach you an AI tool and audit it side by side, and run dinner debates where everyone argues the side they disagree with.
For almost-adults, spoken to like adults. Rules imposed at fifteen expire at the front door; habits chosen at fifteen leave home with them.
The same competences schools teach, in home language: maps to the AILit Framework (EU/OECD, 2026), Engage with AI 3 and 7 and Manage AI 1 and 3, Intermediate to Advanced, and UNESCO’s student framework (2024), human accountability and safe and responsible use, Apply level. The classroom cousin of this pack is Burden of Proof.
What’s inside
Five conversations, held as equals
Every activity comes with the words to say, the counter-arguments to expect, and one conversation starter to let sink in afterwards. What they build: judgement that still works when nobody is checking, which is soon.
The Delegation Deal
A coursework agreement drafted by both sides, negotiated properly and signed by both. Reviewed each term, because a deal that never updates is just a rule wearing a tie.
30 min · kitchen table, once a term · Manage 1, 3Role Reversal
Your teenager teaches you an AI tool they actually use, and you are a good student. Then you audit it together: what it keeps, when it is confidently wrong, who pays for it.
30 min · their desk, your humility · Engage 3Dinner Debates
AI in hiring, chatbot friends, AI art, privacy against convenience: four motions with real tension in them, and one house rule that changes everything: you argue the side you disagree with.
20 min · dinner table · Engage 7The Two-Tab Experiment, Advanced
Ask the machine the same question framed three different ways and watch it follow the frame each time. The fastest cure for “the AI agrees with me” ever discovered.
20 min · one screen, side by side · Engage 3The Adult Card
Five habits they choose to take when they leave home, written by them, in their words. The quiet graduation ceremony of the whole Homefun line.
20 min · kitchen table · Manage 1, 3A dozen starters
Twelve conversation starters for near-adults, each with a direction of travel, none of them a trap.
1 min each · wheneverA taste of the pack“You sign it too, and yours has teeth: maybe you stop letting the machine draft sensitive work emails, or start disclosing your own AI use at work the way you are asking them to disclose theirs at school. A deal where only one side gives anything up is a rule with paperwork, and teenagers can smell the difference from another room.”
