Building AI for Education: Insights from the Classroom & the Code!

As AI tools like CK-12’s Flexi become more integrated into classrooms, educators and developers face distinct but interconnected challenges. How do we ensure AI is not just accurate, but pedagogically sound? How do teachers balance AI-driven personalization with real-world classroom dynamics? This panel brings together a veteran teacher who has used CK-12’s AI tutor Flexi with hundreds of students and a CK-12 team member who works behind the scenes to maintain and improve its functionality. Together, they’ll discuss the opportunities and limitations of AI in education, the challenges of implementation, and what it takes to create tools that are both effective and safe for students.
