We train your teachers to shape AI in their classrooms, before vendors and students shape it for them.

The reality on the ground

Your students are already there.

The horse has left the barn. The question is whether the faculty knows.

The teacher ladder

Where is your faculty today? Where do you need them by next semester?

Most schools have an L0/L1 average and don't know it. The workshop gets a cohort to a working L2 protocol, with the trajectory and tools to reach L3 on their own.

  1. L0
    Curious bystander.

    "I tried ChatGPT once." No classroom use. Most of your faculty.

  2. L1
    Daily helper.

    Lesson plans, rubrics, parent emails drafted with AI. Personal productivity only.

  3. L2
    Embedded in pedagogy.

    Designs assignments AI can't shortcut. Uses AI as a Socratic peer for students.

  4. L3
    Curriculum architect.

    Builds AI-resilient assessment. Models judgment publicly. Mentors colleagues.

Stage 1 · ~45 min

Approach.

Disposition before tools. The frame every teacher walks in repeating, before any classroom move is made.

  1. Plan for the AI of next term, not the chatbot fad of this one.
  2. Treat every AI answer as a draft, never a verdict.
  3. Design for the thinking students show, not the answer they hand in.

This is the posture that makes the next three stages possible →

Stage 2 · ~45 min

Provenance.

The fight over "did they use AI?" ends. It is replaced by a clear contract for how much, declared up front.

  1. Declare on every assignment how much AI is allowed, on a simple 1-to-5 scale. The rules are now unambiguous.
  2. Ask students to attach a one-line note with their submission: which tool, used for what, and what they kept.
  3. Stop using AI detectors. They wrongly flag over half of multilingual students. Use the student's own draft history instead.

Now teachers have something to point at, not just a hunch →

The Conversation.

When something looks off, the answer is not a tribunal. It is a conversation that ends in either evidence of learning, or honest remediation.

  1. Open with a conversation, not a verdict. Ask the student to walk you through how they wrote it.
  2. A five-minute oral defense restores teacher authority better than any detector ever could.
  3. Practice the conversation in pairs today. The first time you do this cannot be with a real student.

A protocol that protects the student, the teacher, and the school →

Policy & Adoption.

The morning lands when the cohort writes the three things that govern Monday: a classroom agreement, a parent letter, and a calendar.

  1. Co-write a one-page classroom AI agreement with students: what's allowed, what isn't, what to ask about.
  2. Send the parent letter in week one. 96% of families have never had one from their school.
  3. Walk out with a 30 / 60 / 90-day rollout plan, ready to start Monday morning at BIS.

What every cohort walks away with.

01

The teacher's provenance kit.

Every teacher leaves with their own AI Assessment Scale (AIAS) rubric for their subject, the AI Disclosure (AID) stub they paste on every brief, and the viva voce script they will actually use.

The school's three artefacts.

The cohort co-writes a Class AI Agreement, a parent letter, and a 30/60/90-day rollout. Defensible to your board, parents, and the regulator. Ready to send.
