Join us as we navigate the opportunities and challenges of AI-powered learning—because the future of education isn’t just about keeping up, it’s about leading the way!
Ready to move beyond the “wow” of AI and into the “how”? In this practical session, we’ll explore quick and powerful strategies you can use to help your students become thoughtful, responsible AI users.
