Building Better Bots: Elevating Teaching with AI

Wednesday July 9, 2025 2:50pm - 3:50pm MDT

AI chatbots aren’t just for techies—they’re becoming instructional powerhouses in the hands of creative educators. This session shows you how to design AI bots that elevate your instruction, personalize student support, and save you time. The key? Writing a clear “AI constitution” that sets the tone, boundaries, and purpose for your chatbot. You’ll explore real examples of classroom bots built to tutor, provide feedback, support IEP goals, and more—all while staying aligned with your values and curriculum. Leave with templates, strategies, and inspiration to start building your own instructional sidekick.
