Work Smarter, Teach Deeper: Using AI to Build DOK-Rich Lessons Fast

Imagine turning the lessons you already have into rigorous, thinking-rich experiences—without starting from scratch. In this session, teachers will learn how to transform existing resources—standards, texts, labs, and assignments—into DOK Level 2–4 tasks that promote deeper thinking and student engagement. Leveraging tools teachers already use—Google Docs, Forms, and LMS platforms like Canvas—participants will create scaffolded supports, collaborative activities, and meaningful learning experiences. Through real classroom examples, you’ll see how students engage in analyzing, evaluating, and creating—key components of the Synthesizer AI-Ready Graduate standard—as they make connections and construct new understanding. Walk away with ready-to-use prompts, practical strategies, and a simple workflow you can implement immediately using tools you already have.
