A couple of weeks ago, our Co-Founder & Co-CEO, DJ Hartigan, had the opportunity to speak on the main stage at the National Charter School Conference as part of a panel on AI in education.
While AI is changing the world, one thing at Kindle won't change: great teachers are at the center of every student's learning experience. We see AI as a tool to support educators, spark student curiosity, and create even more opportunities for collaboration, creativity, and inquiry—not as a replacement for the relationships that matter most.
We're especially excited to continue this work as we kick off our participation in the Playlab AI Lab Schools cohort next week. As one of the inaugural AI Lab Schools, we'll be collaborating with educators, researchers, and engineers from across the country to thoughtfully explore how AI can strengthen teaching and learning.
We're excited about what lies ahead as we prepare students not just to use emerging technologies, but to thrive in a world increasingly shaped by them.
