As I prep and research for my session at Los Angeles County Office of Education’s AI Symposium on August 1, I discovered that there isn't much out there as far as developmental readiness for #AI integration in classrooms. I've been thinking... 🧒🏽 When is a child even ready to engage in #GenAI? And in what way? 🏁 What developmental learning milestones should be established before introducing chatbots, image generation, and AI-infused project based learning? 🎯 What learning outcomes should be articulated before considering the role of AI in the instructional design? So, with a little content assistance from ChatGPT and some design inspiration from Canva, here's my proposed roadmap for AI Integration in TK-12 Classrooms. Thoughts? #AIinEDU #GenerativeAI #aieducation #edtech #AIinTeaching

Unleashing the Power of AI in Learning! 🤖 #AIFuture #EdTechRevolution Have you ever imagined a world where AI coaches guide learners through personalized pathways, enhancing their skills and knowledge precisely? We're on the brink of this exciting new era, where technology meets education uniquely and dynamically. AI in learning isn't just about replacing human teachers; it's about supplementing and enriching the educational experience. These digital coaches can adapt to each learner's pace, identify strengths and weaknesses, and provide resources that align with individual goals. The potential for increased engagement and improved learning outcomes is immense. As we embrace this transformation, let's ensure that technology amplifies our teaching strategies rather than overshadowing them. What are your thoughts on integrating AI into your learning journey?

AI isn’t here to replace educators—it’s here to redefine how we work. It’s not taking our place in the classroom, but it will replace a lot of what we do and how we do it. And that’s not a bad thing. Imagine having more time to focus on connecting with students because AI helps streamline lesson planning, generates differentiated materials, or provides instant feedback. Tools like ChatGPT aren’t about cutting corners; they’re about opening up opportunities to teach smarter and deeper. For those hesitant about using AI, I’d say: it’s not about losing our identity as educators but evolving it to meet the needs of a rapidly changing world. How are you embracing AI to make your work more impactful?

🚀 Exciting Update! 🚀 I’ve just completed the 'Essential Guide to AI for Educators' course, and have gained deeper insights into how artificial intelligence, particularly tools like ChatGPT, can be used to enhance our practice. As educators, we are always looking for ways to support student learning and streamline our own busy lives and classrooms. This course provides practical, actionable strategies to integrate AI into the classroom. #AIinEducation #EdTech #ArtificialIntelligence #TeachingInnovation #ChatGPT #ProfessionalDevelopment #LifelongLearning #Educators

🎂 Happy Birthday, ChatGPT 🎈Bring on the terrible twos! Two years in, we’ve learned a lot about the potential and pitfalls of AI in education. 🤖 AI chatbots can be dangerous 🪄 AI is not a magic wand to solve academic challenges 📉 Over-reliance on AI, without teacher oversight, undermines real progress. Smartschool’s Yoko is a technology designed to provide feedback to students, always with the teacher in the loop. The teacher controls the level of guidance and tone of feedback given to students. It is designed to facilitate: • Productive struggle • Metacognition • Self-efficacy At Smartschool, we believe that AI should empower educators with the data and insights they need to build student confidence. Data from Smartschool helps teachers turn insights into meaningful action: • Scaffolding • Cooperative learning groups • Reteaching • Differentiation What strategies do you think are most effective for using AI-powered tools to enhance classroom teaching?

Transforming Academics with the Power of AI Artificial Intelligence (AI) is no longer a futuristic concept, it’s reshaping the world we live in, including how we learn and teach. As educators, we stand at the forefront of this transformation, and the opportunities are immense. Imagine a classroom where every student has a personalized learning experience tailored to their pace, interests, and strengths. AI makes this possible through tools that analyze learning patterns and provide customized content. From virtual tutors to automated assessments, AI is not just enhancing efficiency but also enabling educators to focus on what matters most, building connections and fostering critical thinking. But AI isn’t just for students. For teachers, it’s a tool to innovate. Whether it’s creating adaptive lesson plans, automating administrative tasks, or using generative AI like ChatGPT to inspire creativity. AI doesn’t replace educators, it empowers us to be more impactful. As we embrace this journey, it’s crucial to ask: How can we integrate AI thoughtfully while preserving the human essence of education? Let’s collaborate to find answers and shape the future of learning. What are your thoughts on AI’s role in academics? #ArtificialIntelligence #Academics #EdTech #AIinEducation

Friend or Foe? AI and ChatGPT are here to stay—so how can we embrace them in education?
