Professional Development Course:
Empowering Educators with AI: Leveraging Generative AI to Enhance Teaching & Learning
Generative AI has the power to reshape classrooms, empower educators, and unlock new possibilities for teaching and learning. The goal of this course is to explore and evaluate a variety of ways to incorporate generative AI into our classrooms and our professional practices, with a specific focus on enhancing teaching and learning. In pursuit of this goal, we will gain hands-on experience with a variety of generative AI tools, develop our prompt engineering skills so that we can craft precise and purposeful inputs that achieve our desired outcomes from generative AI tools, and analyze the current and potential future impacts of generative AI on education. Together, we’ll build our knowledge and confidence of how generative AI can serve education, and be equipped to lead in this exciting new era.

AI Game
I created this interactive game to help students—and curious minds of all ages—explore the relative sizes of objects in our solar system. Players adjust the sizes of paired celestial bodies to reflect their true scale, then lock in their guesses to earn points. With each accurate comparison of planets, moons, dwarf planets, comet nuclei, and the Sun, players collect “golden mirror segments” and deepen their understanding of astronomical scale.
This game was built entirely through “vibecoding” with ChatGPT: I described the concept and features, and the AI wrote the code. Want to see how teachers can bring their ideas to life through vibecoding? Check out the demo video below.
AI Tutorial Videos
Here are a few videos I made that involve generative AI topics. All of my videos are available on my YouTube channel.
"Vibecoding" Educational Games Demo: This video demonstrates just how quickly teachers can use AI to program their own educational games or simulations without actually knowing how to code at all. In this demo I create a simple Astronomy game from start to finish in under 30 minutes.
How To Make A "Scrolling Lyrics" Video For A Song: A quick guide to creating videos where lyrics scroll as a song plays—great for using AI-generated songs in the classroom. This tutorial uses Keynote and iMovie but works with PowerPoint and most video editors.
Make A Custom Bookplate For Your Class: Learn how AI image generation help you quickly make a quality bookplate to glue inside the covers of the books you loan out form your library. Perfect for teachers who maintain a classroom library.
