Participants will engage in hands-on experiences with district-purchased tools, including Brisk, Kami, and more, while unpacking real-world use cases aligned to IEP goals, UDL principles, and the California Common Core Standards. We will also examine district expectations for responsible AI use, student-facing guidelines, and policies that protect privacy and preserve teacher agency.
