As part of IBM’s Month of Impact, we’re inviting you to help spark ideas that high school students will explore using AI.

• Start your post with the sentence starter: “How can AI help…?”

• Share a real-world problem or creative idea and no challenge is too big or too small. You can even record yourself :).

• Browse through other posts, leave comments, and like the ones that inspire you.

Together, we’ll create a library of challenges that empower students to imagine bold, AI-driven solutions for the future. 🌍✨

1. Click the plus (+) button at the bottom right of the Padlet.

2. A box will pop up and type your idea starting with “How can AI help…?”

3. When you’re done, just hit Publish/Post and it will appear on the board.

4. You can also click the heart/like on other posts that inspire you.

That’s it! Quick and easy!
