I have learned that AI is the wave of the future in all aspects of human life, and as an educator and lifelong learner, I need to learn how to harness and leverage this powerful and useful tool in a way that is ethical, responsible, accountable, and most importantly, student-centric.

Reinforced Learning, Transfer Learning, and Quantum Computing are advanced AI concepts that serve to enhance the capabilities and advancement of AI while optimizing the time and resources required.

I have learned that AI can be a valuable tool in Career and Technical Education, however it must not only be technically proficient, but ethically responsible and non-biased as well.

I learned that IT understanding impacts both soft and hard skills in the classroom and workforce.

Productive struggle resulting in student agency is the theme I'm walking away with.

The descriptions of the tickets and engaging activities were better than many of the descriptions I've heard in the past. I was also interested in the concept of overlearning.

Learning for the sake of learning was the best sentence in the whole module for me.

I enjoyed learning terminology that fit what I was already doing like the conversation about metacognition, developing a common language among my students and ensuring productive talk.

I learned about Gamifying learning as well as Digital Field Trips. I think that the Digital Field Trips will be easier to implement as there are so many websites that offer video experiences/tours/tutorials. Gamifying sounds fascinating to me and I would like to begin with one unit that incorporates that experience for students. Personally, what I remember from high school were the lessons that were fun and engaging. Gamifying will be a good addition to my curriculum.

I learned about the stages of teamwork: Forming, Storming, Norming, Performing, and Adjourning. Group work has never been my forte, so this information was helpful. I plan on creating a poster to demonstrate  these stages for students.

I appreciate that the unit expresses the value of teamwork: building rapport, increasing creativity/productivity, and creating trust within the group.
