| Overview |
In this webinar, we’ll bypass the ongoing debate concerning AI and pedagogy and see what is working in the classroom. Two educators speak on how they are using AI as a tool to narrow the education equity gap and as a collaborator to deepen learning with their students. This webinar is open to all audiences, with a segment at the end walking through a lesson devoted to high school educators teaching civics, history and ethnic studies and on vibe coding. |
