Section 1
The big idea
Most PD is generic and badly timed. AI can be your on-demand coach — explaining UDL, suggesting trauma-informed strategies, modeling how to introduce a tough topic — all in the prep period before you need it.
Some examples
- Ask: 'How do I introduce slavery to 5th graders?'
- Get 3 strategies for a student who refuses to write.
- Have AI explain UDL like you're new to it.
- Generate a 5-minute restorative circle script.
Try it!
Think of one teaching challenge you're facing. Ask AI for 3 evidence-based strategies and pick one to try.
