No makerspace block on your schedule? You can still run Project-Based Learning inside social studies or reading. Skip the hours of planning. Give AI a 3-part funnel: 1. Core topic 2. Available time 3. Integrated subject Example: "Give me 10 hands-on engineering projects about 2nd-grade Mesoamerican empires that fit exactly into three 45-minute class periods." You get ready-to-use projects that blend history and STEM and fit your real schedule. Learn the method in The AI-Assisted PBL Classroom, free from Curriki: curriki.org/courses/ai-assis… #PBL #AIinEducation

"Design your wallet" sounds like a universal project, until you notice how many students don't carry one. When we design projects around what we use, some students check out. AI fixes that bias in minutes. Keep the core objective and let students choose what to engineer: a minimalist wallet, a heavy-duty folio, a purse or an accessory. One design standard. One rubric. A project that fits every student's life. Learn to build equity and choice into PBL in The AI-Assisted PBL Classroom, free from Curriki: curriki.org/courses/ai-assis… #PBL #EdEquity

Will this App change the way you teach Math? In this short, we look at Math Academy, an AI-powered math platform with content from 4th grade through university-level math. What stood out: 1. The AI algorithm assesses each student's level. It's not a simple math assessment platform. 2. After a miss, it asks if it was a silly mistake, then serves a new variation or a lesson. 3. Students can, in some ways, teach themselves with really great content. Math Academy is an approved Curriki partner, and we've already given several grants to schools to deploy it.

What if AI could take the planning burden off your next PBL unit? Jonathan Brusco has spent over a decade designing makerspaces and teaching in project-based learning environments. In The AI-Assisted PBL Classroom, he shows educators how to use AI as a real design partner, with every resource tested in actual classrooms. In 5 short modules (about 90 minutes), you'll learn to: - Build engaging lessons with prompt funnels and a two-step process - Design projects around the materials already on your shelves - Write custom narratives and level challenges for any grade - Create process rubrics and AI simulations to test ideas early - Turn student journals into videos and newsletters for families You'll walk away with a ready-to-teach PBL unit and the prompts to run it again next term.

Will AI change your students' careers? We reviewed Orchard, an AI-driven career and college platform for schools. Here is what it does: 1. Explore: dive deep into any career path, ask the AI questions, and see which colleges fit. 2. Plan: save a career, build an action plan, and use a money planning tool to see what the path realistically looks like. 3. Learn (soon): courses and training so students can get better prepared. Why it matters: college counselors are often asked to guide dozens, if not hundreds, of students. They can't do that effectively on their own. Orchard is much more than a wrapper around AI. @orchardcareers is an approved software partner with Curriki, so your school can apply for a grant for Orchard today.
