Yesterday we began to create our #AI literacy plan for our K-12 district. My brain was exhausted at the end of the day but I'm very proud of the work we did and excited to continue to work on it. Does your district have one? Would love to see it! #EduSky #ISTEcert
Thank you for the kind words Roman!
Yes! Same! #IDEAcon
