This session shows how teachers can embrace AI as a means to accelerate literacy and writing skills, not replace them. Join award-winning journalism and digital storytelling teacher Michael Hernandez to unlock the secrets of using AI to bring out the humanity in writing.

Low student engagement and artificial intelligence have everyone wondering about the future of school, how to grade, and what it means to teach and learn. This session will show you how to create meaningful, authentic, cheat-resistant assignments that students look forward to completing, and are suitable for every subject area and grade level.

Show What You Know with Explainer Videos LIMITED

Friday August 8, 2025 1:45pm - 3:00pm PDT

FAC

We always ask students to show what they know, but those assessments often lead to lots of grading and only end up in the trash. In this session, learn how students can create videos to help explain their learning and design a learning artifact that has a purpose beyond the classroom. This is a great alternative to class presentations, and for language learners, younger students whose ideas often surpass their writing ability, and every student who benefits from multimodal learning experiences.
