Classroom Leaders
As educators strive to prepare students for an evolving world, durable skills, such as critical thinking, communication, collaboration, and adaptability, are more essential than ever. In this interactive session, explore how generative AI (GenAI) tools can be leveraged to cultivate these cross-cutting competencies across grade levels and content areas. Discover classroom-ready strategies for using AI to enhance student creativity, personalize learning experiences, and support reflective thinking. Participants will examine real examples aligned with frameworks like the Portrait of a Graduate and leave with actionable ideas, vetted tools, and a deeper understanding of how GenAI can be a catalyst for future-ready learning.
