Artificial Intelligence is here. In the past few years it has found it's way into almost every corner of modern life - including the classroom. However, important questions remain. Questions like: "Is there a place for AI in the classroom?" "Does that include the Drama classroom?" and "What does AI in the Drama classroom look like?"
These are just some of the questions we will tackle when you join us in this forward thinking PLC.

Navigating Personal Challenges
Monday, November 6 8:00PM EST
(convert to your time zone)
Teachers are people. And people face challenges. Challenges like family illnesses, relationship crisis', financial worry and so much more. What is a teacher to do when a personal crisis hits? Teachers are expected to navigate personal challenges, yet still effectively teach their classes. That means teachers try to keep these challenges from spilling into the classroom - but can they? Should they? Join our panel for an in depth discussion on navigating personal challenges as a teacher.
