[All attendees will receive a copy of the author's book, Fifty AI Prompts for Teachers.] Planning lessons without AI in 2026 is a bit like grading papers without a pen—it’s possible, but why make it harder on yourself? In this session, you’ll learn how to use Gemini as a reliable “thinking partner” to help you brainstorm ideas, strengthen your content knowledge, and build engaging instructional materials. Through hands-on examples and simple prompting strategies, you’ll see how AI can save time while actually improving your teaching. We’ll also dig into why these tools matter right now—and how to use them in ways that truly support learning. Please bring a charged device to this session.
