AI Speedway: Burn Rubber, Not Time on Worksheet Creation

Wednesday June 4, 2025 9:00am - 9:50am MDT

Creating materials for students takes time—time that we teachers often don’t have. If you’ve ever had a great idea for a worksheet, assignment, or project but never followed through because of the prep work, AI can help. In this session, we’ll explore how to use AI to generate worksheets, assignments, and other classroom materials, allowing you to focus on teaching while AI handles the heavy lifting.

We'll walk through examples and create a worksheet together during the session, so bring a charged device and a few ideas for activities or lessons you’d love to turn into ready-to-use materials!

Detours & Roadblocks: Teaching Kids to Problem-Solve Like Pros

Wednesday June 4, 2025 12:10pm - 1:00pm MDT

E219

No matter what path students take—college, career, or something in between—problem-solving is a skill they'll always need. In this session, we’ll explore strategies and activities that help students develop critical thinking, creativity, and resilience in the face of challenges. These are real-world skills that go beyond the classroom and prepare students for whatever future they choose.

We’ll also look at how to use tools like Google Forms and other survey platforms to check in with students during these lessons. These quick and easy check-ins can help you track student growth, gather feedback, and adjust your teaching to better support students as they develop lifelong problem-solving skills.

Whether you're teaching STEM, humanities, or anything in between, you'll leave with practical tools and ideas you can immediately apply to help your students become confident, capable problem solvers for life.
