"AI is a “brave new world” for educators. What do terms like bots, AI smashing, hallucinations, and closed-garden AI really mean—and how do they impact teaching and learning?
In this hands-on session, participants will demystify these concepts while actively creating practical AI tools for their own professional use. Attendees will build a custom AI bot designed to serve as a PLC thinking partner. They will also learn how to engineer prompts to make AI resources better. Lastly, we will compare and contrast differ AI's using AI smashing tools.
This session is not lecture-based. Participants will engage in guided, hands-on work and leave with ready-to-use AI skills they can immediately incorporate into classroom instruction, planning, and assessment design."
