I attended a workshop run by Jessica Peck at ISTE in Denver in 2024 so I knew that she was a presenter I wanted to lookout for. This workshop on Supporting Literacy Through Creativity Using AI-Powered Tools did not disappoint. One of the biggest hurdles I face when teaching a reading lesson is getting my students who struggle to understand the complexities of texts we unpack at our Year 7/8 level without diluting the content. This session focussed on 5 ways I could rethink how I do this and I can't wait to trial these in my classroom. I also realise form this session that I need to create posters for my classroom and class site that show how to use AI effectively - eg: How to prompt AI to create images, because once students understand how to create the task the cognitive load shifts from how to do the task to a focus on content.
