Lessons from District Leaders: How Districts Are Leveraging AI in Support of District Goals
Description

Moderated by Matt Miller (Ditch That Textbook), this session brings together a panel of innovative district leaders from across MA for a candid conversation about their AI journey — from early exploration and evaluation, to implementation and adoption in alignment with district goals, and all the lessons learned along the way. You'll hear the criteria these district leaders used to evaluate AI solutions, including the questions they asked to choose the right technology partner, and how they structured training and ongoing support to drive meaningful adoption across their teams. Panelists will also share how they measure the success of their AI partnership today, the innovative work they've done with Brisk to advance their district's goals and priorities, and their best advice for a district just starting out on its own AI journey. Attendees will leave with a 30-day trial of Brisk Premium and Matt Miller's Playbook for Implementing AI in K-12 — a practical guide and workbook to jumpstart your team's AI journey in alignment with your district's goals and priorities.
