What is AI for Educators?

AI for Educators is a practical professional-development pathway focused on how educators can understand, evaluate and use generative AI in real education work. It covers AI literacy, prompting, lesson planning, assessment, academic integrity, communication and administration without treating AI output as a substitute for professional judgement.

Professional judgement first

AI capability is more than learning a list of tools

Tools change quickly. The durable skills are understanding task design, writing precise instructions, checking outputs, protecting sensitive information, recognising limitations and deciding when AI should not be used.

That is why the LCT pathway is organised around educator decisions rather than software features alone. Tool-specific courses are included, but they sit inside a broader framework of AI literacy, pedagogy, integrity and professional responsibility.
