K-12 Micro-credential: AI for Instructional Innovation

Cost:

$200.00

Program

This microcredential program includes the following courses:

  • Project Based Learning & Artificial Intelligence

    Real-world learning thrives at the intersection of inquiry, collaboration, and relevance. This course explores how AI can deepen and personalize Project-Based Learning (PBL), helping educators design experiences that are both student-driven and strategically supported. Participants learn how to use AI to scaffold research, surface insights, differentiate instruction, and support reflection—without overshadowing the authentic, human-centered work at the heart of PBL. The result: more empowered learners, stronger real-world connections, and classroom projects that prepare students for a future shaped by both creativity and emerging technologies.

  • Universal Design for Learning & Artificial Intelligence (Coming Soon)

    Designing for all learners is both a pedagogical commitment and a creative opportunity—and AI can help expand what's possible. This course explores how educators can apply the principles of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) while leveraging AI to increase access, engagement, and flexibility in the learning experience. Rather than using AI as a one-size-fits-all solution, participants learn to use it as a tool to design more inclusive, responsive, and personalized learning environments. Rooted in research and driven by empathy, this course helps educators reimagine what equitable instruction can look like in the age of AI.

  • Design Thinking & Artificial Intelligence

    Innovation in the classroom begins with empathy, curiosity, and a willingness to rethink the status quo. This course explores how design thinking—paired with the power of AI—can help educators co-create meaningful solutions alongside their students. Participants learn to identify real needs, prototype creative responses, and integrate AI tools to support personalization, insight gathering, and rapid iteration. Grounded in student-centered practices, this course offers practical strategies to help educators transform classroom challenges into opportunities for collaborative, future-ready learning.
