Speaker
Description
Artificial Intelligence is rapidly shifting how teachers design lessons, differentiate content, and engage students. This discussion will focus on how AI can serve as a teaching assistant for physics educators. We will explore practical classroom applications of tools such as Brisk, which integrates seamlessly with Google Docs to streamline feedback and grading; Diffit, which adapts complex physics texts into leveled readings to meet students where they are; and SchoolAI, which provides teachers with structured dashboards for progress monitoring and targeted interventions. The session will also highlight Magic School AI and ChatGPT for lesson-planning, generating practice problems, and building simulations to model motion, forces, and energy. By focusing on how these products can enhance teacher expertise, this 10–15 minute panel segment will show how AI can reduce administrative burden, personalize instruction, and free teachers to focus on the human side of physics teaching.
