In a world of heavy consumption, it is no wonder that students and teachers feel heavy with emotional and mental burden.  Our brains were designed to create.  When resources are limited, the power of the brain kicks in to give us everything we need to create new ideas and endless possibilities.  Join us as we engage in hands-on projects designed to boost learning through creation using our greatest resources, our beautiful hands and brilliant brains!
In this session you will participate in an interactive discussion about the gifted learners' need for creativity and freedom in learning. Leave with strategies to help students move into the creative flow and out of the "I'm Stuck" mindset.  You will participate in free-writing, creative storytelling based on AI generated art, how to develop self paced learning/student led learning into everyday curriculum, and systems to help students create their own extensions.  Here from the mouths of our 4th and 5th grade students why creativity is important to true learning.

 

Incorporate ChaptGPT, Adobe Firefly, Microsoft Copilot, and other AI programs into TEKS-based, focused lessons that work on targeted skills in fun, engaging lessons. We will take a look at the creation of lessons that leverage AI and discuss their limitations and concerns.
