Ed tech tools powered by artificial intelligence (AI) are becoming increasingly common in K-12 schools across the nation. But how do we know which tools are truly using AI for learning, and which are only part of the AI hype?
Join Bellwether in pulling back the curtain on AI in ed tech. We’ll explore how three ed tech organizations are using AI to enhance the “productive struggle,” or the process of being challenged, supported, and given opportunities to reflect — all of which are foundational to learning. Attendees will learn what developers are really thinking about AI, how they’ve thoughtfully integrated AI tools into student learning, and what lessons they have for other organizations and leaders.
Featuring:
- Peter Gault – Founder and Executive Director, Quill.org
- Marisa Mission – Senior Analyst, Bellwether
- Teryn Thomas – Founder and CEO, EdLight
- Dacia Toll – Co-Founder and Co-CEO, Coursemojo
