Course Overview

What this course is designed to develop

This course teaches teachers, instructional coaches, and school leaders to put AI to work across the real jobs of teaching without writing code. You will plan standards-aligned lessons, generate and calibrate rubrics, differentiate one text into multiple reading levels and languages, draft and personalize student feedback, build assessments mapped to Bloom's and Webb's Depth of Knowledge, and automate the parent emails, IEP-friendly materials, and admin tasks that drain your week. Lessons use ChatGPT, Claude, MagicSchool AI, Diffit, SchoolAI, Brisk, and Khanmigo, and every one ends with a ready-to-paste prompt, a worked classroom example with real numbers, and the FERPA and integrity guardrails that keep the work safe.
