The premise
Data conferences turn into rehashes of last week's tests. AI can prep teachers with specific student evidence and instructional next steps.
What AI does well here
- Cluster students by progress profile across recent assessments.
- Pull specific work samples that show the pattern.
- Suggest 2-3 instructional moves per cluster.
What AI cannot do
- Replace teacher knowledge of the student.
- Detect the home-life context behind a regression.
- Predict whether a move will work for one specific child.
