Key Takeaways:

  • K-12 districts are expanding AI training for teachers through workshops, guidance, and approved tools, but educators often struggle to apply what they learn to everyday classroom decisions.
  • Research from Digital Promise suggests AI training is most useful when connected to real instructional needs, allowing educators to explore tools while addressing specific teaching challenges.
  • One-time workshops are not enough to build effective AI skills. Teachers need ongoing opportunities to experiment and evaluate AI-generated content.
