Session Information
The way we "do school" is based on a design that comes straight out of the assembly-line era and is mostly obsolete. Our goal in schooling is prepare and inspire our young people to have great lives. In this session, John will share the opportunity to reconsider the ways we might transform learning, teaching, and assessment simultaneously and embrace emerging GenAI technologies to assist us. The challenges include our own professional learning and our philosophical commitment each day to providing an equity-based approach to our work with children and their families.
