Read the storyIn their words
“If we don't have the knowledge of how to use AI and how to incorporate that into our classrooms, then we are the ones who are failing the students.”
“It's not something that's going to go away. It's here to stay. And I think it's better for all of us to know how to properly use it.”
“This experience showed our educators that AI isn't something to fear. It's a resource they can confidently integrate to enhance learning, inspire innovation, and prepare students for the careers of tomorrow.”
