AI in Colorado Education: Collaborating for Action Webinar
Wednesday, Sept. 27 from 4-5 p.m. MT

Our third webinar in this series will explore how teachers across the country are using AI tools for their work and in the classroom, and how this transformational technology can support learning for students in all grade levels. This webinar continues conversations from our previous events focused on the growing use of AI in education and offers a current perspective on the state of this topic, both within Colorado and on a national scale.

We are excited to welcome four panelists who will share insights on AI usage, including how it can help reduce teacher workload and its potential impact on teacher retention, and discuss opportunities for AI to support learners both in and out of the classroom.
