Participate and share: Interactive session 
Recorded Session
Districts all over the US have been creating competency based "Portraits of a Graduate" to identify markers for student success. But in order for students to be happy, agentic, critical thinkers, teachers need to be happy, agentic, critical thinkers. If AI can replace tutoring, personalization, curation, and so much more for learners, what role should teachers have? What should teachers continue doing and what should they lean on AI for? What should the Portrait of a Teacher be? Join us to learn how you can build a Portrait of your ideal Teacher and use AI to enhance the teaching role. Use this practice to update your expectations for educators, reimagine the teaching role, and hire more thoughtfully.
Participants will:
-understand how the teacher role will shift with AI
-understand how to leverage AI optimally to support the teacher role
-identify the process for creating a portrait of a teacher
-understand the connection between the portrait of a graduate and a portrait of a teacher
-refine expectations for educator hiring and professional learning
This session will be hands on - it will present AI as a teammate who can augment the teaching role. It will require participants to help reimagine what the teaching role might become, and then identify the competencies teachers need to fill that role. It will use many turn and talks, polls, and collective resource sharing.
