At A Glance

Curriculum Directors wear many hats—and AI is here to ensure none fall off. From streamlining research and grant writing to revolutionizing note-taking and professional learning (PL) planning, this hands-on workshop will explore how AI can take some of the most tedious, time-consuming tasks off your plate.

Think of AI as the assistant you always wanted—except it works 24/7 and never loses sticky notes. Whether you’re drowning in data or buried under unit outlines and professional learning planning, this session will introduce the AI tools that can make your job easier, more efficient, and even (dare we say it?) fun.

Objectives

By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:

✅ Use AI to conduct lightning-fast research for curriculum updates, instructional trends, and best practices.

✅ Automate parts of grant writing (so you can finally apply for that funding without pulling an all-nighter).

✅ Take smarter, more organized notes—because AI can summarize, transcribe, and even highlight key points for you.

✅ Plan professional learning (PL) sessions in minutes, not hours, with AI-generated agendas, presentations, and follow-up resources.

✅ Analyze data trends to make evidence-based curriculum decisions faster than ever.

✅ Complete a hands-on project using AI to tackle a real challenge in their work
