The Innovation Expedition: Finding New Paths with AI and Design Thinking

AI is reshaping education faster than any roadmap can keep up, and the ability to navigate uncertainty may matter more than having all the answers. In this camp-themed workshop, you will tackle collaborative challenges and use AI hands-on to experience how design thinking turns ambiguity into opportunity. Together, we will explore authentic school challenges, uncover hidden assumptions that limit creative problem-solving, build empathy for stakeholders, and prototype innovative solutions you can test right away. You will practice using AI as a thought partner for brainstorming, empathy-building, and innovation, and develop strategies to help students and educators grow more comfortable with ambiguity and change. Whether you are a classroom teacher, instructional coach, technology leader, or administrator, you will leave with actionable prototypes to adapt for your own school or district and practical strategies for fostering curiosity, creativity, and human-centered innovation in an AI-powered world. All workshops are BYOD and require All Access or Session + Registration to attend.
