112. Revolutionize Your Teaching with AI and UDL: Less Stress, More Success with Special Guests Jessica Pack & Georgia Terlaje
Description
Creating personalized lessons to meet every one of our students’ diverse needs is stressful especially when you have many students and there is only one of you. But what if you were able to make learning more accessible for all students without burning out? That’s where utilizing AI tools in the classroom comes in! Today, I am joined by two incredible guests, Jessica Pack and Georgia Terlaje, who are giving us a look into how AI can be used in the classroom. We are discussing the role of podcasts in professional development, how to leverage AI for Universal Design for Learning, exciting AI tools you can use in your classroom, and more!
