AI In Education

 

Learning and Leading with AI in Education 

My work in AI in Education focuses on empowering educators with the knowledge and tools to harness the transformative power of artificial intelligence. I believe AI has the potential to revolutionize how we teach and learn, and I'm passionate about making these advancements accessible to all.

What do I offer?

I've developed a comprehensive suite of resources designed to demystify AI for educators. These resources include:

  • Presentations: Engaging presentations that break down complex AI concepts into digestible information for teachers and administrators. Topics range from the basics of AI to practical applications and the ethical considerations of using AI in education.
  • Workshops and Professional Development: Interactive workshops and professional development sessions that provide hands-on experience with AI tools. Participants learn how to use AI for lesson planning, personalized learning, and administrative tasks.
  • Activity Handouts: Practical resources that guide educators through using AI tools for specific tasks, such as generating creative content, differentiating instruction, and streamlining communication.

Why is this important?

AI offers incredible potential for education. It can help us:

  • Personalize learning: Tailor learning experiences to individual student needs and pace.
  • Boost efficiency: Automate tedious tasks, freeing up educators' time to focus on what matters most - their students.
  • Spark creativity: Unlock new possibilities for creative expression and problem-solving.
  • Enhance communication: Improve communication between teachers, students, and parents.

Practical Applications of AI in Education:

My resources delve into specific examples of how AI can be used in the classroom and beyond, including:

  • Generating lesson plans and activities aligned to curriculum standards.
  • Creating differentiated content to cater to diverse learning styles.
  • Providing real-time feedback on student writing.
  • Developing engaging assessments.
  • Automating administrative tasks like grading and scheduling.

The Future of Learning is Here:

AI is not just a futuristic concept; it's a tool that educators can use today to enhance their practice and create more impactful learning experiences for students. My goal is to equip educators with the knowledge and skills they need to confidently navigate this exciting new landscape.

2025 FETC Resources and Presentations

 Every year I present at multiple conferences and the one that I look forward to the most is FETC. Being able to get out of Illinois in January and enjoy some of my favorite things in sunshine and edtech makes this conference a highlight of my year! This year I'm presenting three times and very excited to share information on Drones, Leadership in AI, and bringing Kami to your classroom. I hope you enjoyed my sessions if you attended and if you weren't able to be there my resources are below and I'd be happy to help in any way that I can.  Creativity and Computer Science from Above with Drones!

AI as a Creative Thought Partner, Part 1: Why AI Should Be More Than Just a Tool

AI as a Creative Thought Partner, Part 1: Why AI Should Be More Than Just a Tool Artificial intelligence has become one of the most talked-about technologies of our time. Over the past couple of years, the growth of AI has been explosive faster than almost anyone expected. Every week, it seems like there’s a new tool, a new feature, or a new way AI is being integrated into our daily lives. From voice assistants to AI-powered glasses, we are edging closer to a future where intelligent technology surrounds us in ways once reserved for science fiction. But here’s the critical question: how should we think about AI? Too often, AI is framed simply as a tool, something that automates repetitive tasks, makes processes more efficient, or saves us time. While that’s true, this mindset risks limiting its potential. If we only see AI as an automation engine, we miss its real strength: acting as a creative thought partner . Beyond Automation: Rethinking AI’s Role There’s no denying that automation...

AI Savvy Students, Part 3: Use vs. Misuse

  AI Savvy Students, Part 3:  Use vs. Misuse, The Stoplight Analogy AI decisions live in the gray. A simple “yes/no” policy rarely covers every subject and task. The stoplight model gives students clarity while leaving you room to teach. Red Light: Hard no’s (misuse) Copy/paste submissions. AI produces the text; the student submits it as their own. Fabricated citations or evidence. Bypassing the learning target. Example: using AI to write a creative piece in a class where the target is crafting original prose . Concealed use. If AI meaningfully shaped the work and the student hides it, that’s a red light even if the content is decent. Response: zero for the task product, restorative redo with a process focus (drafts, oral defense, verification log), and re-teaching of expectations. Yellow Light: Context matters Tooling that supports mechanics (e.g., Grammarly) in classes where the target is historical reasoning, not comma usage. Tutor-style assistance when stuck. If the...
