Join Cameron (TechTips with Cameron), a K—12 Tech Lead for the Halton District School Board, as he walks you through the foundations of using AI to support your practice and reclaim time in your day for what matters most in education: human connection. This hands-on session is designed for educators who are curious about AI but want to start from a place of safety, privacy, and purpose.

You will explore how Google tools such as Gemini and NotebookLM can be used in practical, low risk ways to support planning, content creation, and everyday workflow. Together, we will look at examples such as automatic slideshow creation, image generation, and the development of custom visuals, all through an educator lens that prioritizes responsible use.

By the end of the session, you will have a clearer understanding of how AI works within Google’s ecosystem, concrete strategies you can use, and resources to continue learning beyond the session. This session focuses on building confidence, reducing friction, and showing how AI can support your work while enhancing the human side of teaching.
