Session description

In an era where AI permeates every aspect of life, the education community needs effective strategies to prepare for this technological transformation. This dynamic session brings together distinguished ISTE AI in Education Preparation Program Fellows to share innovative approaches for embedding AI literacy into teacher education. Through interactive demonstrations and expert-led discussions, you'll explore practical methods for engaging adult learners with AI concepts and technologies. The presenters will address critical questions about equipping both new and preservice teachers with the skills and knowledge necessary to thrive in AI-enhanced educational environments.

Outline

This session will feature an innovative and interactive approach to a multi-presenter session, giving both presenters and attendees the opportunity to interact and respond to various issues surrounding AI education.

1. Getting Started: Introduction of presenters & welcome from ISTE and GM
2. Take a Closer Look: Fellows demonstrate and discuss strategies and activities for integrating AI education topics into teacher preparation and professional development
3. Wrapping Up: Audience Q&A, Final thoughts from fellows, and Resource share.

(More specifics will be added to this interactive session outline later this spring. This session is being developed by ISTE's 2025 AI in Education Preparation Programs Fellows. This fellowship of innovative higher ed faculty and staff is being convened strategically to develop the strategies, resources, and materials for this ISTELive Conference session, as well as future expanded offerings for the teacher education community.)
