This hands-on session bridges the gap between AI technology and proven pedagogy. Using John Hattie’s Visible Learning and Bloom’s Taxonomy as our guide, you will learn how to offload lower-level tasks to AI so students can focus on high-rigor, critical thinking.Together, we will explore how to rethink instruction adapt assessments to move beyond rote memorization and traditional essay writing effectively solve the common "writer’s block" hurdle. You will walk away with ready-to-implement ideas that include high impact teaching strategies targeting an effect size of over 0.4 on Hattie’s HITS scale and guide students to work in the top tiers of Bloom’s pyramid. To ensure responsible AI integration, this session will incorporate awareness of how and when to teach students to verify, edit, and ethically cite AI-generated content. We will also emphasize safety and ethics, including raising awareness of protecting student data (PII) and identifying bias in AI-generated outcomes.If you are curious about how to include AI in starting to empower "critical thinkers," this session provides the research-backed roadmap you need.
