2027 TransformEd: Teaching & Learning Conference

Student agency and AI adoption don't have to compete with rigorous assessment. They can strengthen it.

In this interactive session, Connie White and Elizabeth Helfant will share real examples that are putting Empowered Action and Creative Reasoning into practice. You'll see multiple approaches to two connected challenges: giving students more agency as they work alongside AI and adjusting assessment practices to match.

This is a working session for the whole group, built around real decisions school leaders have already made and the thinking behind them.

You'll leave with concrete models to adapt, not just ideas to consider.
