ChatGPT—one of the most valuable technology tools for teachers and learners—became widely available in the fall of 2022. Since then, artificial intelligence (AI) tools like ChatGPT have taken education by storm. Teachers are using these tools to create new content, differentiate their instruction, identify strategies for teaching and reteaching concepts to their students, and work more efficiently and effectively. Just as important, students are using these tools to improve their understanding of complex ideas, identify new paths of learning in their areas of personal interest, and receive targeted feedback on their work. Because AI tools are changing how we work and learn, classroom teachers must reflect on their potential and understand their limitations.

Artificial intelligence (AI) tools like ChatGPT are revolutionizing education, empowering teachers to work more efficiently and effectively while opening new learning pathways for students. From creating differentiated content to streamlining planning for instruction and intervention, AI offers endless opportunities to enhance the work of K12 teachers and collaborative teams. However, these tools also bring challenges and limitations that educators must navigate thoughtfully.

This book provides a clear, practical roadmap for teams to enhance their impact by building a strong foundation for collaboration, gaining clarity on essential student learning, leveraging assessments as learning tools, and ensuring every student receives the time and support needed to achieve high levels.
