AI Modes in Action: Protecting Thinking While Learning with AI

Thursday July 23, 2026 1:55pm - 3:00pm EDT

Room 103

Participants learn a simple set of AI Modes and use them to work through a real instructional task. They analyze a sample AI conversation, identify where mode shifts happen, and apply the same process to their own work. Using a short pre-production plan, a live AI conversation, and reflection, participants create a classroom-ready artifact while making their thinking visible — and leave with a workflow they can adapt for student AI use.
