Artificial intelligence (AI) is changing education, but what works in teaching and learning remains irreplaceable.

Authors Maya Bialik and Peter Nilsson move beyond the fear and hype to provide a balanced guide for a new era. With practical examples, they show how to leverage AI as an indispensable tool for research, lesson planning, and feedback to enhance learning and foster creativity.

K–12 teachers and leaders can use this book to: Build their confidence in diagnosing where AI does and does not belong in education, Provide a rigorous foundation for a human-centered AI strategy in schools, Gain practical approaches for using AI to support research, planning, and feedback, Design lessons in which students use AI to enhance rather than replace learning, Deepen knowledge of how learning sciences inform effective use of AI, and Anticipate how AI might support teaching and learning in the years to come.
