AI in Education Meet-up #10
ED + AI is our monthly room for educators, students, parents, builders, researchers, and curious neighbours figuring out what AI means for learning.
Bring your tough questions, half-built ideas, classroom realities, tools you’re testing, and the stuff you’re not sure how to ask yet.
AI is already in the classroom, the hallway, the homework tab, the staff room, the after-school program, and the group chat.
So we’re keeping the door open every month.
ED + AI is a consent-first, equity-minded, place-rooted circle for people working around education and AI: teachers, students, parents, caregivers, youth workers, librarians, researchers, artists, technologists, EdTech builders, and neighbours who care about learning as public infrastructure.
This month: Show & Tell.
Have you built a tool, designed a workflow, or found a genuinely novel way to use AI in your practice? Come share it. You'll have 5–10 minutes to walk us through what you made, what you tried, or what you're figuring out. No polished deck required, no expertise gatekeeping. Just show us what's real.
And if you're not ready to present? Come anyway. Bring the tough question you keep circling. Bring the big idea you haven't found language for yet. Bring the classroom situation, policy wrinkle, parent concern, student workaround, or "is anyone else seeing this?" moment.
We'll compare notes, share what's working, name what's not, and make space for the questions that don't fit neatly into vendor demos or district memos.
Bring your laptop or phone — especially if you're presenting!
What to expect
Open conversation around real education + AI questions
Space to share tools, workflows, prompts, projects, and experiments
Honest talk about consent, equity, workload, assessment, creativity, and student agency
Small-group discussion so everyone actually gets to talk
A practical community vibe: more kitchen table than conference stage
Who ED + AI is
ED + AI is a monthly AI and education gathering hosted with big love by Ethọ́s Lab × BC + AI.
We’re here to weave practical tools with ethical guardrails so classrooms, after-school programs, community labs, and learning spaces can adapt without losing the human core: relationships, curiosity, confidence, care, and agency.
