This workshop, “Using Generative AI Tools in Your Future Classroom” will focus on: equipping teachers to apply AI tools to augment teachers’ unit plans; writing lesson plans with AI that are grounded in Illinois content standards; and designing formative and summative class assignments with generative AI. This workshop is based on a growing interest among K12 teachers to better understand AI but also use GenAI to create images for courses, help build inquiry-based assignments, and to develop rubrics that can be used across the curriculum. The workshop will be facilitated by Dr. Vishal Sachdev, an expert in the use of technology in enabling collective action, cooperative production, information sharing, sense-making, and collaborative work.
