AI Exchange: Empowering Educators for Tomorrow
Educators are already experimenting with AI in ways that are reshaping lesson planning, student projects, and everyday classroom learning. In this panel, teachers from different countries and subject areas will share how they’ve been using AI tools to support their work and open up new possibilities for student engagement and learning.

Panelists will bring examples from their classrooms from student work, planning artifacts, visuals, and short demonstrations, that show how AI is being used in real and tangible ways. The session will highlight small shifts and bigger changes in practice, and ideas that educators can take back and adapt to their own contexts.
