Beyond the Prompt: Creative and Critical AI Integration in Every Classroom

Move beyond the basics of prompting and the predetermined how-to to explore how artificial intelligence can enhance creativity, inquiry, and critical thinking across disciplines. This highly interactive, play-based session invites educators to experiment with AI through hands-on design challenges and collaborative exploration. Participants will engage in creative problem-solving, apply AI tools to authentic classroom contexts, and reflect on how these experiences can deepen student learning. We’ll also examine how to navigate digital use policies and ethical guidelines to ensure AI integration remains responsible, equitable, and learner-centered.
