Join school and district leaders from across Michigan for a showcase of how schools are pioneering AI literacy efforts with students and staff. You’ll gain valuable insights from those who have led AI literacy work, including AI-enhanced instructional practices, professional learning delivery, student-driven AI policy development, and community stakeholder engagement. We will also have a facilitated discussion to uncover some lessons learned to benefit Michigan’s broader education community as we prepare for a more AI-powered future.

Student behavior has been a challenge this school year, and teachers have had a hard time focusing on content when constantly dealing with these issues. Tammy Jackson and Mike Dahlinger share some ideas and resources to help make the next semester go a little smoother.

Recent Legislation in Michigan requires schools to make the following SAT Suite of assessments available to students in grades 9 through 12 in Fall 2021: the SAT in grade 12, PSAT/NMSQT in grades 10 and 11, and the PSAT 8/9 for Grade 9. Students may participate whether or not they tested in spring of 2021.

In this webinar, the College Board Michigan Field Team addresses how to plan for and order assessments in the College Board Test Ordering System (TOS) for the Fall 2021 administration. 

In the modern educational marketplace, there are so many learning management system (LMS) providers that it can be difficult to sift through sales pitches and figure out which will be best for your school community. In this webinar, representatives from three Michigan school districts (Dexter Community Schools, Fraser Public Schools, and Dearborn Public Schools) share their journeys to LMS selection (feat. Summit Learning, Blackboard, itslearning, and Moodle).

Each district will share the deciding factors that led them to choose their current LMS, including how it aligns with their district’s instructional framework and what the user experience looks like for students, parents, teachers, and support staff. 

Session 3: Whole-School SEL & Mental Health | Participants will be able to define and brainstorm what whole-school SEL they will work to implement and reflect on how to make whole-school SEL supports most effective.

Session 2: SEL Practices for Students | Participants will be able to identify the connections between SEL, suicide prevention, and trauma-informed practices as well as why these topics matter now more than ever.
