Workshop Description

AI is everywhere and teachers and students have a wide range of knowledge and experience with its use. This workshop focuses on how to provide professional development for teachers to explore AI and integrated it into their curriculum. The SAMR model serves as a framework for using AI intentionally so that it is not just seen as something to be afraid of or the latest gimmick.
