Cabinet Pre-Institute

Cabinet Pre-Institute
Please join us for a special pre-Institute session sponsored by the Council's Cabinet Committee focused on the influence and impact of artificial intelligence.  One of the most significant challenges facing school districts in this era is the degree to which these tools have undermined = made vulnerable- traditional, content focused goals, instructional approaches, and assessment practices. Ironically, these very tools can also be used to make these same curricular frameworks more durable by focusing on uniquely human skills, like those found in many districts’ vision of the graduate. This session will explore these challenges and provide guidance for how to future proof your instructional practices by focusing on the critical skills required by every student for success in life, learning and work beyond school. Presenter: Jonathan P. Costa, Sr. is the Executive Director of EdAvance in Litchfield, Connecticut. His experience and practice have been informed by time spent in secondary history instruction, district curriculum development, for-profit corporate management, executive leadership and consulting. Since 1990, Jonathan’s work has taken him to over 150 districts in the tri-state area. The primary focus of Jonathan’s current practice is assisting districts in their planning to prepare students for a world being transformed by artificial intelligence. He is the author of the Corwin Press book, Digital Learning for All, Now and is a former Vice Chair of the Litchfield Board of Education. He has also served on the Commission for International Education and has led international school accreditation visits on five continents. All are welcome and lunch will be provided.
