Back in Wichita and reflecting on an incredible week in Boston at the Learning Forward Annual Conference.
It was a true privilege to share the stage on Wednesday with Dyane Smokorowski for our keynote, "Making Learning Human in an AI World". The energy in the room confirmed what we’ve been seeing in our district: educators are ready to move past the fear of AI and start designing with purpose.
We often get stuck asking how AI changes teaching, but the real question is how it changes learning.
In our session, we explored how AI shouldn't just be a productivity tool—it must be a thought partner that helps us shift from rote memorization to designing deep, human-centric learning experiences. When we automate the routine, we liberate the human capacity for connection, mentorship, and creative design.
The "writing is on the wall" that our old foundations are shifting. Our responsibility now is to ensure that as technology advances, our focus on student agency and meaningful relationships advances even faster.
Thank you to everyone who joined us to close out the conference. Let's keep the conversation going—how are you using AI to make your classrooms more human?
