Artificial Intelligence in Education - Exploring The Tools

What Do Educators Need to Know to Adapt and Use AI to Support All Students?

Educators cannot hide from a growing collection of Artificial Intelligence resources, so the question becomes how can we adapt and use AI to help students learn? 

It literally seems like AI is everywhere. I find it in my email, I find it in resources I've used for years and of course, it's mentioned on just about every site connected to teaching and learning. 

Today I wanted to share:

• Some of my thoughts about AI in education. (Best for last?)
