Using AI to Promote In-Class Enrichment Opportunities

ADP 1145

In this presentation, I will share ideas of how teachers can use AI to differentiate their instruction for high-achieving and gifted students within their classroom. Providing these enrichment activities is often a time-consuming task for the classroom teacher. The power of AI can be harnessed to create these unique instructional opportunities and better meet the needs of advanced students. Examples of different AI platforms and specific prompts will be provided.

This presentation will also allow time for attendees to create their own materials to use in class.
