The premise
AI helps designers of faculty meetings save time on logistics and focus energy on the conversations that move teaching practice.
What AI does well here
- Suggest protocols matched to your goal.
- Draft agendas with timing.
- Generate discussion questions tied to data.
- Produce post-meeting follow-up summaries.
What AI cannot do
- Build trust between colleagues.
- Know your faculty's history.
- Replace facilitation skill in the room.

Where does AI add the most value in meeting design?
- Generating slogans
- Saving time on logistics so energy goes to conversations that move teaching practice
- Selecting room temperatures
- Picking lunch
Which protocol-related task is AI well suited for?
- Building trust between colleagues
- Knowing your faculty's history
- Suggesting protocols matched to your stated goal
- Replacing facilitation skill in the room
Which artifact is reasonable to ask AI to draft?
- A relationship between two staff members
- A teacher's classroom presence
- A union contract
- An agenda with timing
Which is appropriate to ask AI for given school data?
- Discussion questions tied to that data
- A staff member's home address
- A list of students to fail
- A petition
What kind of summary can AI reliably produce after a meeting?
- A telepathic record of what people felt
- A post-meeting follow-up summary
- A guarantee of follow-through
- A list of who is wrong
What is AI explicitly bad at in this context?
- Drafting an agenda
- Suggesting protocols
- Building trust between colleagues
- Generating discussion questions
Why won't AI know your faculty's history?
- Because AI cannot read
- Because faculty don't exist
- Because history is illegal
- That history lives in people's memories and informal context, not the prompt
What is the right framing for AI's role in the room?
- A planning aide before; the facilitator owns the room
- A replacement for the facilitator
- A microphone
- A timekeeper only
What's a good prompt structure for protocol selection?
- 'Make my meeting good'
- Describe goal and time available; ask for three protocols with pros and cons
- 'Pick one'
- 'Be a teacher'
Why is mass-generated, compliance-style PD a bad use of AI?
- Compliance PD is illegal
- AI refuses to write it
- Adults can tell when content is hollow and check out
- It's too short
Which is the principle behind 'design meetings teachers want to attend'?
- Add more meetings
- Use longer slides
- Hide the agenda
- Respect adult learners' time and intelligence
What's the right way to use AI's pros/cons output for protocols?
- As a starting point for your judgment, not the final answer
- As mandatory
- As gospel
- As decoration
When should you trust the AI's protocol suggestion most?
- Always on the first use
- When you have field-tested it once and it fit your faculty
- Never
- Whenever it's the longest
What's a healthy follow-up after each meeting?
- Skip summaries
- Send raw transcript only
- Have AI draft the summary; the facilitator edits and sends
- Hide the outcome
Which mindset best fits AI for meeting design?
- AI handles everything
- Humans handle everything alone
- Skip meetings entirely
- AI handles the scaffolding; humans handle the substance
