EdTech for Innovation 2025

This session shares lessons learned when a district put generative AI to the test in classrooms. Co-presented by a district leader and a SchoolAI team member, we'll walk through how the pilot was designed, what educators actually did with the tools, and why the district decided to move forward. You'll hear about specific use cases in science and math—like how AI supported student inquiry and self-directed experiences—and also what teachers found most helpful (and what they didn’t use). We'll focus on practical takeaways: how the pilot was structured, what metrics mattered, and what changed for both teachers and students. This is a working session on what it takes to move from pilot to practice with AI in STEM

Discover how integrating AI Ethics into K-12 classrooms can cultivate critical thinking, digital citizenship, and future-ready skills. In this session, we introduce the STEAM in AI Ethics Curriculum—a modular, standards-aligned program designed by Stanford, MIT, and UC Berkeley faculty to empower educators with tools to teach AI responsibly. Learn about low-code, no-code solutions that make AI accessible to all learners, and how this curriculum is preparing students for AI-powered futures while addressing ethics in technology. Walk away with actionable strategies and ready AI ethics Curriculum you could bring to your Classrooms today!

Ready to ditch dull assignments and empower your students to create, communicate, and captivate? In this interactive session, explore how AI and Adobe Express can transform your classroom into a launchpad of creativity. From visual storytelling to voice-powered projects, learn how to amplify student voice and choice across all subjects, no design degree required!

This hands-on session introduces educators to the fundamentals of Arduino—an accessible microcontroller platform ideal for STEM education. Participants will build and program a basic LED circuit while gaining practical insights into integrating electronics and coding into their curriculum.

Designed for educators with no prior experience, this workshop demonstrates how Arduino fosters critical thinking, creativity, and real-world problem solving. Attendees will leave with foundational skills, classroom-ready project ideas, and curated resources to support immediate implementation.

Ideal for middle and high school educators seeking to enhance STEM engagement through interactive, tech-based learning. All materials provided.
