Keynote: Getting (AI)borne: Navigating the Turbulence Between IT and Instruction in the Age of AI
Wednesday February 5, 2025 11:15am - 12:30pm MST
400
The rise of AI in schools has created both incredible opportunities and complex challenges, particularly between teachers and technology managers. Looking at the relationship between educators and IT professionals reveals how their different roles are equally vital to student success. Like pilots guiding planes through the sky while air traffic controllers ensure safety from the ground, educators guide students through their learning journeys while IT professionals maintain secure and stable operations. Through real-world examples, we explore the tensions that arise when bringing AI into classrooms and share practical strategies to align goals, foster collaboration, and balance innovation with security.
