SUMMARY:Prompting Plus: From Basic AI Use to Practical Advantage
DESCRIPTION:Many school leaders have experimented with AI\, but better results require more than a basic prompt. This session is designed for administrators who want to move from casual use to practical advantage. Participants will learn how to structure prompts more effectively\, give AI the right context\, show it what strong output looks like\, and use meta prompting so AI can help create better prompts. Along the way\, the session will include a few “I didn’t know it could do that” moments through practical examples connected to work in a Google Workspace district. For busy leaders\, these strategies can save time\, improve the quality of planning and communication\, support stronger instructional leadership\, and make AI a more reliable thought partner instead of a hit-or-miss tool. The session aligns with Future Focused Academics by helping leaders build the knowledge and confidence needed to use AI with greater intention and impact.

SUMMARY:Prompting Plus: From Basic AI Use to Practical Advantage
DESCRIPTION:Many school leaders have experimented with AI\, but better results require more than a basic prompt. This session is designed for administrators who want to move from casual use to practical advantage. Participants will learn how to structure prompts more effectively\, give AI the right context\, show it what strong output looks like\, and use meta prompting so AI can help create better prompts. Along the way\, the session will include a few “I didn’t know it could do that” moments through practical examples connected to work in a Google Workspace district. For busy leaders\, these strategies can save time\, improve the quality of planning and communication\, support stronger instructional leadership\, and make AI a more reliable thought partner instead of a hit-or-miss tool. The session aligns with Future Focused Academics by helping leaders build the knowledge and confidence needed to use AI with greater intention and impact.

SUMMARY:Bloom's Upside Down
DESCRIPTION:If AI can generate definitions\, summaries\, explanations\, and first-draft responses in seconds\, what should students still be expected to do? This session helps school and district leaders rethink rigor by examining how AI is changing the instructional value of lower-level Bloom’s tasks. Through clear examples\, participants will see how AI can be used to support background knowledge and routine processing while teachers redesign learning so students spend more time analyzing ideas\, defending decisions\, and creating original products. The session connects directly to Future Focused Academics by helping leaders identify shifts in teaching and learning that better reflect the demands of an AI-shaped world.
