Empowering Teachers through AI & Self-Discovery

Welcome to your comprehensive guide to integrating Artificial Intelligence in the K-12 classroom. Before we can teach students how to think about their thinking, we must embark on that journey ourselves.

Session 1: The Metacognitive Mirror

If we want our students to harness AI as a tool for critical thinking rather than a shortcut, we must foster metacognition—the awareness and understanding of one's own thought processes. This section is designed as a self-discovery tool for educators. By mapping your own metacognitive profile, you will better understand how to structure AI prompts that demand the same self-reflection from your students.

Self-Assessment Tool

Rate your current practices on a scale of 1 (Rarely) to 10 (Consistently). Adjust the sliders to see your profile update in real-time.

Planning (Setting goals before tasks) 5

Monitoring (Checking understanding during tasks) 5

Evaluating (Assessing outcomes after tasks) 5

Information Management (Organizing new knowledge) 5

Debugging (Identifying and fixing errors in thought) 5

Why this matters: As you observe the shape of your chart, consider how you can use AI to stretch the areas that are closer to the center. The prompts in the library below are designed to activate these exact domains in your students.
