Just a quick reminder before we get to today’s episode that you can save $50 at the upcoming NCCE conference here in the State of Washington March 21-23 by using the code shiftingschools50. It’s always a great conference and I’ll be there doing six sessions including two on ChatGPT and AI in education. We will also be recording a live Shifting Schoosl podcast with anyone who wants to join us in room 406 at 2:00 pm on March 23rd. Thank you to NCCE for sponsoring Shifting Schools and giving us a space to record an episode live. If you are going to the conference please make sure you stop by and say Hi and if you can join me at 2pm in room 406 and be a part of the podcast we’d love to have ya. Will be talking about trends during the conference, ah-ha moments, and just our takeaways. If you can’t make it to the conference make sure you follow using the #ncce23 on Twitter and be listening for that episode after the conference. Again that’s ncce.org and that offer code is shiftingschools50 of course it’s all in the show notes as well.

All podcast listeners can save $25 when they use the code SSPOD25 at checkout on any of our courses. Our 5-Day AI Challenge and Tricia’s steller The Intersection of AI and Equity are both for sale at the moment. With that discount code you get either one for $74. We send you an email with a link to the slide deck that includes everything you need to implement it in your school. A built in reflective journal, a facilitator's guide and videos walking you through the process. In fact I just took our 5 Day Challenge and used it in a PD training at a school district. So many great ways to use these resources. Don’t forget that’s $74 for a site license you are allowed and encouraged to give every teacher in your building their own copy. You don’t have to go to a website, there are no logins. We literally just give you the file to share within your school. It comes in both Google Slides and PPT format and of course, we’re here to support you every step of the way. So use that code SSPOD25 and start supporting the shift in your school around generative AI. That’s SSPOD25 at shiftingschools.com
