AI First Steps for Educators
Practical uses before instructional redesign.
For every K-12 educator, no AI experience assumed. Five modules plus setup — 4 to 6 hours, self-paced, with elementary, secondary, and administrator variants throughout. You'll set up tools safely, learn what AI can actually do, prompt with structure, apply it to six everyday educator tasks, and learn to audit every output before it touches a student.
You leave with an AI Starter Portfolio — six working artifacts, from a privacy commitment card to an AI-ready assignment snapshot — and with the question that opens Course 2:could a student submit AI work in my class without my knowing? The on-ramp, not the destination.

The redesign sequence
Course 2 — Redesigning Learning for an AI Future
Without outsourcing thinking.
Eight modules that rebuild assignments so students do the thinking even when AI is available: what students still need to learn; AI-resistant, AI-assisted, and AI-partnered task design; seven redesign moves; classroom norms and disclosure; process evidence. Ten role-based pathways — from elementary generalist to special education to leaders — with worked examples in every module, and fourteen reusable tools.
Course 2A — Assessment in the AI Era
Measuring what students know when products are no longer enough.
The assessment problem AI reveals, and the system that answers it: triangulating product, process, and performanceevidence. Oral defenses and conferences, formative assessment that doesn't lie, grading and portfolio redesign, family-facing reporting — through to schoolwide assessment coherence. Seventeen tools.
For leaders: both courses carry a four-session leader mini-course alongside, ending in a 90-day AI instructional coherence plan.
Capstone · Course 3
Redesigning the K-12 Curriculum for an AI Future
The advanced course, deliberately more philosophical and more historical: what is curriculum actually for? Twelve modules move from the four purposes of education through durable skills, human capacities, and learning science, to design criteria, model case studies, pilot design, and policy constraints — ending in a collaborative convening that produces a shared curricular vision with a pilot pipeline and governance to carry it.
And when a district wants a thinking partner for the whole arc — that's the consulting conversation, atthe hub.
