Friday January 31, 2025 5:40pm - 6:25pm MST
Feeling overwhelmed with juggling multiple preps and running out of time to plan? You deserve a teaching assistant—and guess what? You already have one! This breakout session will show you how to harness the power of AI to slash your planning time in half. Whether you’re scrambling for last-minute lessons or juggling multiple curriculums, AI can be the extra set of hands you need. If you attended last year, this updated session includes fresh strategies and a brand-new focus on using AI as your teaching assistant, making planning even more efficient! You’ll learn how to use language-based AI tools like ChatGPT to generate curriculum outlines, organize objectives, and even repurpose lessons across different preps. No more staying up late or losing your weekends to planning! Plus, I'll share my top prompts and strategies for getting AI to do the heavy lifting, using only the tools you already have at your disposal. By the end of this session, you’ll have a clear roadmap to streamline your curriculum planning and take back your time.

Navigating Standards-Based Grading in Hands-On CTE Classes
Friday January 31, 2025 7:30pm - 8:15pm MST
Join me as we explore the last 10 years of a philosophy change in how I communicate the progression of student learning, what a grade means, and how that works in a hands-on class environment. It’s been a journey full of glorious failures and incredible mind shifts. I’ll share how I’ve been able to make this work in over 10 different classes I’ve taught from construction to robotics and health to German.
