This is a Solution Tree webinar giving you strategies on how to responsibly embrace AI in your classroom.There will not be a facilitator for this session.

In the Solution Tree Master Class: Educator AI, Paul explores ways that teachers can build classroom structures and culture that promote the ethical use of AI. As with any other critical skill, teachers need to become AI literate themselves and then guide students through the ways that generative AI tools can help them learn better, instead of taking them out of the learning process.
