We will explore AI tools or apps that support literacy and writing, tools for maths and numeracy, and tools that allow learners to be creative with technology.

• Demonstrations of tools in action and how they can be used by educators.

• Tools that are free to access, and don’t take up a lot of time to set up or learn how to use.

• Practical examples for use in the classroom.
