SchoolAI’s “The Road to ISTE” is HERE — and you don't want to miss a single session.

This June, SchoolAI is sitting down with four of the most dynamic educators in the edtech world for a weekly webinar series built for every teacher — whether you're boarding a plane to Orlando or watching from your couch.

Each session is a candid, energizing conversation about AI in the classroom, what's happening at ISTE26, and how you can connect with these incredible advocates all summer long. It's free, it's live, and it's exactly the kind of PD that actually fires you up. Sign up for one or more — or all four!

Here's your lineup — register now before spots fill up:

Summer is the time when you can finally get around to reading the books you’ve been excited about — education reads AND non-education reads!

What are you planning to read this summer?

I posed this question to the free DTT online community just an hour ago — and already we have lots of recommendations!

Check out the list! Make sure you’re a member of the free DTT online community first … then dive right in!

Just this morning, I got to talk to the creator of Essay Eye — Scott Isley, a current classroom English teacher. We had a nice conversation, and I love his story …

He’s not a big investor who wants to get into educational technology for business growth. He made Essay Eye as the tool HE wished he had for HIS OWN class.

He built what he needed for his own needs as a teacher.

I like the clean, easy-to-use interface. It offers quick feedback that you can use to inform your grading.

Plus, it has a Chrome extension so you can get writing feedback wherever you are in Google Chrome.

The free plan lets you do a lot — and the premium plan lets you create your own AI writing/grading assistants specific to what you want.

At the end of the school year, it seems like students are either wildly busy or sitting idly with time on their hands.

After a project, test, or other task is complete, we've all heard that classic question: “I’m done … now what do I do?”

Early in my career, my brain would kind of short-circuit. But over the years, I learned the power of having high-quality, academic sites tucked away in my back pocket. You know, things that actually keep their attention and help them learn something cool.

Well, we’ve been doing some virtual spring cleaning and just updated our massive list of early-finisher activities—expanding it from 40 to 50 incredible tools! Here is a sneak peek at the brand-new resources we just added to the lineup (spots #40-50), featuring some mind-blowing AI experiments and gamified learning:

40. Say What You See: This clever, game-based experiment challenges students to practice their descriptive language skills by writing image prompts to see if Google's AI can visually recreate a target image.

41. The Kids Should See This: A giant, kid-safe collection of awe-inspiring videos about science, art, and history answering the world's coolest questions.

42. Padlet Arcade: A super fun spot where kids can play custom classroom games like memory match and quizzes to climb the leaderboard.

43. Talking Tours: An AI audio experiment by Google Arts & Culture. Students explore landmark locations via Street View, snap a picture, and an AI tour guide instantly breaks down the history.

44. Most Likely Machine: A fantastic game where kids aged 10–14 build and weight their own sorting algorithms, opening up great classroom discussions about data ethics and bias.

45. Teachable Machine: A fast, hands-on introduction to machine learning. Students train their own AI models using a camera or mic—absolutely zero coding required!

46. Mice in the Museum: Introduce students to world-class art through the conversational dialogue of two animated mice, August and Pearl. Brilliant for encouraging close-looking and creative writing.

47. Beethoven Beats: Students tap out any rhythm on their keyboard, and this AI tool instantly pairs it with a corresponding melody from Beethoven's piano sonatas.

48. The Descent of the Serpent: An immersive, maze-like adventure game that challenges students to navigate historical levels to find lost Maya and Aztec relics.

49. Planet Hunter TESS: Let your students act as real-world astronomers! They analyze actual data from NASA’s satellites to help discover real exoplanets outside our solar system.

50. Disaster Master: An interactive, choice-based survival game by Ready.gov that teaches real-world emergency preparedness, rewarding kids with chapters of a graphic novel as they progress.

Want your students to choose their own adventure tomorrow? Give them the link to our interactive free time choice board included in the post. It guides them through a few quick questions and automatically suggests the perfect option based on their mood and interests.
