Don’t Just Use AI—Build With It: Live App Creation for Educators & Students
Thursday July 9, 2026 12:45pm - 1:45pm HST
Limited Capacity seats available
Description: If students are only using AI to write essays, they are already behind. The future belongs to those who can build with AI. It's time to shift our instructional focus from passive consumption to high-level creation, ensuring students graduate with the real-world AI employability skills required for the modern workforce. In this high-energy, hands-on session, we will explore "Vibe Coding"-the transformative practice of using natural language to build functional software. We'll show you how imagi's ecosystem allows students to move from an idea to a deployed tool in minutes, regardless of their prior coding experience. What to Expect: - Mission & Vision: Understand the "Why." We'll share imagi's vision for democratizing software creation and why AI literacy is the new foundation for student agency. - Safety First: A deep dive into data privacy and security. Learn how we prioritize a safe, district-ready environment for AI exploration. - Strategic Prompting: Get a first look at imagi's AI literacy curriculum. We will conduct a "speed lesson" on strategic prompt writing-the core skill of the AI era. - The Build: Putting theory into practice. You will work solo or with a partner to "Vibe Code" your own app, game, or tool in real-time. - Showcase & Inspiration: We'll share our builds with the group, demonstrating the incredible diversity of tools that can be created when the syntax barrier is removed. - Q&A: A dedicated space to discuss implementation, curriculum alignment, and how to bring this revolution to your district. Join us to see a blueprint for the future of K-12 AI education. Let's stop teaching students to just use AI and start teaching them to build the world with it. Let's move students from AI-consumers to AI-creators!
