Professional development & networking opportunities for high school teachers
This one-day summit brings secondary teachers together to explore intentional, future-focused learning that makes teaching practice visible and supports differentiated learning.
Teachers will learn to harness Gemini Gems and Notebook LM, create practical, curriculum-ready resources, then share approaches that strengthen collaboration and digital fluency that includes Cybersmart practice.
The day is hands-on and classroom-relevant, grounded in tools and strategies that support flexible, scaffolded, and differentiated learning.
Have you got a question or idea about how you to use AI to support your teaching practice? This event will be a chance to explore how to make AI work for you.
