This session will guide educators in reimagining Artificial Intelligence (AI) as a powerful, practical tool to support teaching and learning. Participants will explore how AI can be effectively leveraged to assist with lesson planning, including aligning with TEKS and other academic standards, as well as differentiating instruction and scaffolding learning experiences to meet diverse student needs. Through hands-on examples and collaborative discussions, educators will leave with actionable strategies for integrating AI into their instructional practices—enhancing efficiency, fostering creativity, and helping to close learning gaps in meaningful ways.
