Professional development · K–12 educators

AI in your classrooms, illuminated.

A hands-on workshop that helps K–12 teachers use AI with judgment, not hype. Run it on-site or virtually, shaped around your grade bands and the tools your staff already uses. Teachers leave with classroom-ready materials they built themselves and honest answers to the integrity, privacy, and safety questions schools are actually asking.

Scope

What it is, what it isn't.

This training is

  • Hands-on practice teachers can use the next week
  • Grounded in real tools and real classroom use cases
  • Honest about integrity, privacy, bias, and student safety
  • Paced for skeptics and enthusiasts alike

This training isn't

  • A vendor pitch for one product
  • A lecture with no time to actually practice
  • Aimed only at the tech-savvy staff
  • A one-off novelty with no follow-through
Two formats

Run it as a full day or a half day.

Both run on-site or virtually. The agendas below are a starting point. We adjust the topics, depth, and tools to fit your staff and grade bands.

Why schools book it

What your teachers walk out with.

/ 01

Classroom-ready, not theoretical

Teachers leave with a tested prompt library for their own grade band and subjects, built during the hands-on labs, not a stack of notes that gets filed and forgotten.

/ 02

Honest about the hard parts

We work through integrity, privacy, bias, and student safety directly, including what FERPA and COPPA mean for everyday tool use, so you can set policy with real footing.

/ 03

Meets teachers where they are

Grade-banded and tool-agnostic, paced so first-timers and skeptics keep up. Everyone leaves with a first-month action plan. No AI experience needed.
