Hands-On Robotics. Essential AI. Unique Approach.
?2024 was the year AI disrupted the classroom. While some struggled to adapt, others stayed ahead of the curve— including you! Staying informed means you’re a part of the movement pushing AI education forward, and we’re happy to have you along for the ride one newsletter at a time.??
To kick off the year, we explored how AI literacy is no longer just a buzzword in 2025, it’s now the baseline. So far, 25 state education departments have rolled out guidance on how to include AI in the classroom and this wave shows no signs of slowing down.??
Did we cross paths at FETC??
We started off the year strong with our attendance at FETC 2025, which features the latest in EdTech. If we got the chance to meet, thanks for stopping by our booth! If you missed it, here are some notable topics that were discussed at the conference:??
??AI in Education?
??AI Admin Assistants?
??Cybersecurity in the Classroom?
??Flexible and Inclusive Learning Environments?
??AI in Career and Technical Education (CTE)?
Hope to see you there next year!??
