Explore the transformative potential of generative AI in K-12 education in this interactive session. Designed for all educators (teachers, technology coordinators, and school administrators), this session will showcase how AI can redefine instruction, build complexity, and engage students by moving beyond mere substitution in the SAMR model.
Highlights:
- District Overview: Learn from an overview of our district's "year of exploration" with AI, including the guidance provided and the development of comprehensive training for all staff.
- Visionary Insights: Discover how AI can revolutionize education with personalized, engaging, and rigorous learning experiences that go beyond substitution to augmentation, modification, and redefinition.
- Interactive Demos: Experience live demonstrations of instructional GenAI tools creating interactive stories, gamified learning experiences, and multimedia presentations that transform and redefine traditional teaching methods.
- Discussion Opportunities: Engage in discussion topics on the benefits and challenges of AI in education, focusing on how AI can support differentiated instruction and student engagement.
- AI Playground (as time allows): Participate in a scavenger hunt to explore AI tools and complete creative tasks, showcasing the full power of generative AI to redefine learning experiences.
We know AI can help us generate professional emails and draft lesson plans, let’s see how it can be used to really transform teaching practices. Join this session to see how we can easily move beyond “substitution" with the help of generative AI tools, to truly innovative learning experiences for our students.
