Homework Done, but Did Students Learn?
Fostering Meaningful STEM Learning in the Age of AI

The homework comes back complete and correct. But did your students learn, or did AI do the work? Now that AI can solve routine problems in seconds, finished homework no longer tells us what students understand.

This webinar shows why understanding matters more than ever, and how STEM educators can foster meaningful learning. Using classroom examples of real-world problems, it shares simple active learning strategies that guide students’ thinking and make learning visible. Leave with ideas for your next class.
