Beyond Recommendations: Creating Custom Solutions for Teachers with AI

Technology coaches have traditionally helped teachers find the right tool. But what happens when the right tool doesn't exist? Today, AI allows coaches to help create custom solutions tailored to specific instructional needs. This session explores practical workflows for identifying classroom challenges, collaborating with teachers and using AI to develop customized resources, interactive activities and simple web-based tools. You will learn to identify teacher challenges that custom AI-generated tools can address, facilitate coaching conversations that move from instructional need to solution design and use AI platforms to create classroom tools, review activities and learning supports with minimal coding experience. You will also learn to evaluate and refine AI-generated solutions for usability, accessibility and classroom implementation. Leave with strategies for moving from problem identification to solution design and supporting teachers in new and innovative ways.
