Had a great time on Living East Tennessee sharing 3 practical ways to use AI this school year:
📸 SNAP IT
📚 LEARN IT
💡 PLAN IT
The goal:
AI shouldn’t replace thinking. It should support it.

When @dsdPD is part of your beginning of the year professional development and she gives you time to plan your first studio #chefskiss 🤌
First studio launch for the first day of school. Explanation in comments. @PetroskyPirates #blendedlearning

One teacher.

📈 133% projected growth.

🎯 81.3% of students met or exceeded their growth goals.

Something big is coming…

Teacher Excellence by Design™

#studentengagement #education #teacherexcellence

Sustainable professional learning isn't about one good workshop. It's about building systems that teachers can use every day. #studentengagement #edtech #professionallearning

Tomorrow at #CFISDDLC:
Student ownership doesn't happen by chance—it's designed through systems.
And the question isn't, "How do I run small groups?"
It's, "Why this group? Why today?"
Looking forward to sharing both sessions!

Excited to be presenting at the #CFISDDLC on July 21!
Engagement by Design: Where Students Own Their Learning
Small Groups That Matter: Differentiation That Actually Moves Learning
Sharing strategies for engagement, differentiation, student ownership, & small groups.
#CFISDDLC

What if differentiation was built into the system instead of added to the lesson? This 3-day checklist helps students:
📊 Use their data
🎯 Focus on priority standards
📚 Access targeted practice
🚀 Apply learning through projects
Student ownership starts with good design.

The checklist template shown here is available in my resource store for educators looking for a ready-to-use framework for Small Group, Independent Practice, Digital Content, and Future Ready Studios. blendedlearningpd.com/store/p127/One…

In the age of AI, the final product is no longer enough evidence of learning.
Grade the process:
💡 Brainstorm
🤝 Collaborate
✏️ Revise
🛠️ Create
🎯 Present
The process reveals the thinking.
#AIinEducation #EdTech #AuthenticLearning

AI doesn’t have to be an all-or-nothing initiative.

Start with time-saving tools ➜ use data to support differentiation ➜ build toward personalized learning.

Busy doesn’t always mean engaged.

Compliance completes tasks.

Engagement drives learning.

What student engagement actually looks like.

✅ Small Groups
✅ Collaboration
✅ Digital Content
✅ Student Ownership

When students are doing the thinking, engagement follows.

🎯 The goal isn’t to keep students busy. The goal is to keep students thinking.

We talk a lot about meeting students where they are. Well, the same principle applies to professional learning.

Generic PD doesn't move the needle, customized, practice-based learning does. I work with schools & districts to design workshop experiences tailored to their specific goalh add-on coaching & consulting options for those ready to go deeper.

The goal isn’t to use more AI.

The goal is to use AI to create more engaged, empowered learners.
