AI IN YOUR FIELDPersonalized

Here's how other teachers are using AI:

  • Utah rolled out Google AI tools statewide to help teachers build lesson plans, create grading rubrics and streamline administrative tasks.
  • More than 80 teachers and administrators at 18 California schools learned how generative AI works, then built and piloted their own AI tools, for example to differentiate lessons for students at different levels.
  • The American Federation of Teachers launched a National Academy for AI Instruction to train 400,000 K-12 educators, about one in every 10 U.S. teachers.

Knows what’s next

Built for your work

Every lesson uses situations Teachers face at work.

Skills that stack

Scattered tips and tutorials rarely add up to real skill.

Each level builds on the last, from your first question to running your own AI workflows.
