Artificial Intelligence (AI) is no longer the future – it’s the present of education. This 5-day hands-on course introduces teachers to the best AI tools available today and shows how to use them responsibly to transform teaching and learning. From lesson planning to differentiation, from assessment to content creation, you’ll explore how AI can boost productivity and creativity without replacing the teacher.

You’ll master ChatGPT and its prompt engineering features to create tailored lesson plans, personalized feedback, and differentiated tasks. Discover MagicSchool for instant quiz creation, IEP support, rubric generators, and more. Learn how to design stunning AI-generated presentations, and create educational videos perfect for flipped classrooms or visual learners.

We’ll also explore the ethical use of AI and how to teach students to use AI as a thinking companion, not a shortcut. A dedicated session on critical thinking ensures that participants leave with strategies to empower students to question, analyze, and understand, not just generate content.

By the end of this course, you’ll be confident in using AI tools to save time, increase student engagement, and create dynamic learning experiences—all while staying grounded in responsible, human-centered teaching.

Join us in exploring how AI can support, not replace, great educators.
