- The Great Generational Divide and A Path Forward. Together.

- Description
- The rise of Generation Z into the workforce has brought changing values that are challenging older generations to understand and manage on the job, particularly in the aftermath of the COVID 19 pandemic. While older generations of educators complain about younger teachers being less hard-working, new research suggests that younger generations may be more effective with increasing students' academic performance. The difference in work ethic between the generations is a reflection of changing values and priorities, and there is a unique opportunity for older and younger teachers to work collaboratively, not combatively, to do the most good for students every day.

- Description
- The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) tools in schools is a contentious issue, with many educators skeptical about its implementation. However, instead of attempting to stop the wave of AI, New York City Public Schools has redirected its efforts towards a more innovative approach to integrating AI district-wide. The integration of AI tools can help combat teacher burnout by expediting the time spent on ancillary tasks, allowing educators to spend more time on the heart work of connecting to students with thoughtful, transformational learning experiences. AI cannot replace teachers, but it can help teachers create assignments that require a new level of critical thinking and personalizaron on the part of their students.
