Fun one with @DoakShannon and our @NISChina chatbot host, NISSA. Crazy how much has happened in only the few days since we recorded this with @Google’s Gemini release once again impacting the AI landscape. We are in it, folks! Where will we be in a year, a month, a week?!

AI's taken over our #podcast! 🤖 What happens when an #AI chatbot interviews @KB_Intl and @DoakShannon about the state of AI at our school and education in general? It's a fascinating episode full of fun and insight – don't miss this one! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas… #NISInspires

Looking forward to presenting our @NISChina Gen AI journey (so far) with the legendary @DoakShannon and learning more from member schools about how the #ACAMIS region is leveraging this “Opportunity to Build.” See you in Hangzhou!

Really enjoying the shift from "How are you going to keep kids from cheating w/ A.I.?" to "How are S's going to maintain their individual voices in an A.I. world?" and "How are you ensuring S's have the skills to use A.I. tools safely and effectively." NIS families are on it!

NIS continues to work across our inclusive learning community to share our ever-evolving philosophy and practices on #AI. @DoakShannon and @KB_Intl recently hosted a successful workshop for parents and caregivers that explored AI's role in education, as well as our future plans for further integrating AI into learning at NIS. nischina.org/news/article/~b… #NISInspires

Fun one to collaborate on. Thanks to @KatieNovakUDL & @gcouros for embedding authentic assessment into their @PennGSE @NovakEducation courses. That is where both this work, our efforts to sustain it, and this article all began! Kudos to @ISC_Research for another great ISL issue!

The future of education is unfolding right now, in front of our eyes – and we're here for it. Today, IT and school leadership teams discussed the NIS #AI philosophy and practices with faculty, focusing on leveraging AI for efficiency, teaching, learning, and inclusion. While being mindful of the challenges ahead, we encourage staff to explore AI tools, share experiences, and rethink assessment practices to ensure an #inclusive education. The conversation continues with students and parents. #NISInspires @KB_Intl @DoakShannon

An outstanding event and such important work, especially in times like these. One thing is also for sure, when we say “student-led” @NISChina we mean it! Congrats to the organizing committee, delegates, their passionate sponsors, and our ace facilities and catering teams.
