ASU+GSV – ChatECE: Empowering Educators and Families with AI

Step into an inspiring conversation about the promises and risks of AI with the early childhood education (ECE) workforce with the power of AI. Facing mounting challenges like burnout and high turnover, the ECE sector is at a crossroads—and AI offers a transformative path forward. This dynamic session will showcase how AI can reimagine the way educators work, empowering them with tools that lighten administrative burdens and amplify their ability to connect meaningfully with children.

Gain actionable insights into how AI can create personalized learning journeys, foster creativity, and deepen engagement in the classroom. We’ll also explore the critical importance of equitable access and robust training to ensure that AI serves as a bridge—not a barrier—in addressing existing disparities. Hear practical examples of how AI can empower families with tailored resources and data-driven insights to support their children’s learning, creating a more inclusive and equitable future for education.
