CIS Ontario welcomed 160 participants from 35 member schools and three guest schools on Monday, January 29, 2024, at BMO IFL for a full day of professional learning focussed on Generative AI and related topics. In this dynamic and collaborative event, educators, administrators, technologists, and AI enthusiasts came together to delve into the fascinating realm of artificial intelligence and its implications for K-12 education.

Traditional conference structures were replaced by organic discussions, brainstorming sessions, and knowledge sharing among participants. Seasoned AI experts and beginners alike explored its potential in education. This Unconference offered a unique platform for exchanging ideas, insights, and best practices, ignited thought-provoking conversations and inspired innovative approaches to K-12 teaching, learning, and school management.

Learning was deepened as participants explored and researched our four unconference strands.
1) AI in the Classroom: Enhancing Instructional Practices
2) AI for Student Assessment and Feedback
3) Teacher Positionality and Professional Learning in the Age of AI
4) AI as a Personal Assistant: Educational Administration and School Operations
