Maybe you're already experimenting with AI tools and wondering if you're doing it right. Maybe you aren't sure we should be using them at all. But almost everyone wants to know what other schools and districts are actually doing, what your students are already up to, and where all this is heading. After hundreds of hours as an AI Ethics researcher and working with thousands of educators this year from New York to California, here's what I can tell you: there's no "right" place to be in your AI journey, but there IS a right way to approach it. And that approach includes understanding the landscape. This keynote gives you the real picture - what's working, what's not, and what we're seeing across the education landscape right now. We'll talk tools, cut through the noise on AI detection, and look at what the research is telling us about where to actually spend your time (and not). You'll leave with clarity on next steps - whether that's your classroom practice, your building's approach, or your division's path toward smart AI guidelines. Whether you're a skeptic, a believer, or somewhere in the middle, you'll walk away with both practical direction and a renewed sense of possibility, with the full picture in view.
