If you’ve been wondering how K-12 schools can prepare students for a world shaped by artificial intelligence (AI), rapid change, and emerging career pathways, CoSN’s EdTech Innovation Committee has been asking the same questions. Their latest resource, From Classrooms to Careers: Reimagining Learning in an AI-infused World, brings together ideas from a recent meeting to explore what students need now and how districts can respond.

The resource synthesizes six major themes based on the EdTech Innovation Committee’s insights:

  • Preparing students for career futures that are uncertain and rapidly changing 
  • Integrating technology across all subjects and career pathways 
  • Shifting from content-focused teaching to problem-solving, critical thinking & effective tool use 
  • Building cross-department collaboration structures 
  • Balancing foundational knowledge with AI-augmented learning 
  • Pushing the boundaries of what’s possible

Want the full insights?

CoSN members can download the free resource today, complete with direct quotes from committee members and detailed analysis and summaries of each theme.

CoSN’s EdTech Innovation Committee meets virtually every month to develop resources on CoSN’s Driving K-12 Innovation Top Topics and other timely trends that have the potential to significantly impact K-12 education.
