Tech use – including AI – is transforming how educators plan, teach, & communicate in classrooms. How are teachers making intentional decisions to use tech w/MLs & ELs? PK-12 teachers in the US who works with ML/ELs, please share your experiences! luc.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/fo…

Join us on 12/4 to learn more about teaching & learning math given the rise of AI! #mathchat
Math education is evolving quickly, and parents are doing their best to keep up with a shifting landscape and the growing influence of AI in learning. To support parents, we partnered with @OpenStax to host a free webinar led by Meg Knapik, Educational Advisor and former Superintendent of Curriculum and Instruction in Illinois, and Ashish Bansal, CEO and Co-Founder of StarSpark.AI. They will break down how kids learn math best in today’s education environment and how families can support that learning at home. In this 45-minute session, we will cover: • The difference between school curriculum and State Standards • How Singapore and U.S. math approaches shape student success • How AI tutoring tools like StarSpark build mastery, confidence, and consistent practice 📅 December 4 at 4 PM CST / 5 PM EST 🔗 Register at the link in our bio #parentwebinar #matheducation #aiinlearning #mathhelp #mathematics #education

There is often confusion between standards and curriculum, but they are not the same thing...think about it like the destination vs. the journey to get there! starspark.ai/education-stand… @StarsparkAI

What do you think #mtbos? How would you hope AI would respond to a student to help promote their conceptual understanding & develop mathematical reasoning?
