As long-time NCCE conference presenter, Professional Learning Specialist, and now a WA State Presidential AI Challenge Champion, Cheryl McClure is leading the conversation with the work she has long been passionate about. "For me, the answer has become clear: AI is already here. It’s shaping our world, our science, and our classrooms. And because of that, our students need more than access to tools, they need thoughtful, intentional AI literacy that helps them learn how to think with AI, not just use it." - Cheryl McClure linkedin.com/pulse/teaching…
