ISTE Certified Educator
Hello, I am Kia Karmela Angeles, 30 years old and a lifelong learner. I finished my Bachelor’s Degree in Information Technology and worked as a software engineer and web developer for eight years before teaching. I’m currently a Technology Coach of JACK, Junior Academy for Coding Knowledge, Inc. Mentoring and coaching budding engineers and programmers made me strive for excellence and earn certifications and higher education. I finished Computer Science (CAT.1) Diploma Programme given by IBDP (2017) and Master Programme in Artificial Intelligence Engineering under SimpliLearn (2019). Now, I'm moving towards educational certifications and earning Master's Degree units.

Session description

There are many common misconceptions about AI and we mostly associate this with the term "automation." Even so, AI is all around us but NOT in the form of robots or any "thinking machines" that we're so fascinated about. Come and learn how AI can be used in your classrooms!

Purpose & objective

I. To help coaches/mentors/educators better understand how AI and data-driven decisions make more appropriate assessments.
II. To show how students with LD and SEN can learn better when given the right platform and technology tools and to share documented outputs comparing old traditional approaches and the new approach empowered by data.
III. To encourage more educators in using a purpose-driven approach to lesson planning, coaching, and mentoring students.
