While collaborating with other educators\, campers will have the chance to engage in a variety of activities that offer practice with new tools and targeted exploration to see how generative AI can be applied to support teaching and learning. Following the summer camp theme\, EdTech will embark on an adventure to see how generative AI can boost creativity (arts & crafts!)\, save teachers time (show & tell!)\, and assist in content creation (cooking class!) – all while keeping responsible use of AI in focus (mindfulness!). \nRegister Here
