"My favorite Exploration is Feedback—I love how we infused quality pedagogy in an effective prompt to deliver a deep learning experience." 

CO-FOUNDER

St. Mark’s School
Modern & Classical Languages

"I am a huge fan of Co-Lab's Discipline Specific Exploration cycles -- getting to compare ideas with people teaching the same classroom topics you are is a game changer. Of our 24-25 explorations, I also really loved nerding out on AI for Research and AI for Engagement!"

LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT

Sidwell Friends School
Middle School History Faculty | Coach

"Designing the Engagement exploration was such a fun experience! I use simulations and interactive activities in class often, so the exploration was a like a direct jolt of creativity. The discussions from the Collaboration Call gave so many future possibilities."

SPECIAL PROJECTS

Greenhill School
Upper School Math Faculty

"My favorite exploration has been AI for Research. I was able to build out an amazing research project for my Precalculus kids to explore how Logarithms and Exponents are actually important curves in a wide variety of real world applications from chess rankings, to medication dosages, inflation and so much more.  Utilizing AI for Research allowed my students to explore areas that interested them but that I was not an expert in."

TECHNOLOGY INTEGRATION & POLICY

Groton School
Director of Academic Technology

“Using the AI as a student really opened my eyes — this felt like it really lowered the stakes on a powerful exercise, allowing more risk-taking for each student."

WEBSITE & COMMUNICATIONS

Webb School of Knoxville
Upper School English Faculty | Ed Tech Coordinator

"My favorite exploration is AI for Active Engagement. I love how AI helps get students engaged off-screen, too!" 

CURRICULUM & POLICY INTEGRATION

Vail Mountain School
Director of Technology

"My favorite exploration has been AI for Differentiation and Personalization. Being able to dive into how to provide the best instruction for ALL types of learners in my classroom is so meaningful. Giving access to students is what we strive for as educators, and this provides scaffolding and direction every step of the way. Ideas are presented that I didn't think of, and each iteration makes you think critically."

EXPLORATION DESIGN

Choate Rosemary Hall
Director of Academic Technology

"Don’t make me choose!"

CO-LAB WEST LOGISTICS

TVT Community Day School
Director of Educational Technology | English Faculty

"My favorite exploration was AI for Differentiation & Personalization.  These were the most difficult concepts for me as a pre-service educator, when I was tasked with designing very prescribed lesson plans without a true grasp on differentiation, and long before we began focusing on student choice in assessment.  This was my 'aha moment' for why AI has the potential to redefine teaching and learning."

CONFERENCE COORDINATOR

Pomfret
Director of Technological Innovation | Director of Olmsted Observatory

"I really enjoyed finishing the school year with AI for Engagement. I felt like I had a creative thought partner as I planned innovative and fun classroom activities like escape rooms to prepare students for final assessments."

EXPLORATION DESIGN

The Hun School of Princeton
Director of Residential Life

"My favorite exploration was AI for feedback. I found so many different ways it could be used both for my students and for my own teaching practice. I can bring back those prompts over and over again through the year and get completely new ideas. This exploration is also one that helped me really understand how important the iterative process is with AI tools- it really helped me to refine my thinking and ask the right questions."

TECHNOLOGY INTEGRATION & POLICY

Kent School
Academic Technology Integrator

"My favorite exploration is AI for Lesson Design. It's so versatile and can be tailored to fit the needs of any audience - teachers, instructional coaches, admin, or anyone else in our schools. I also love AI for Lesson Design can be reused throughout the year, so someone can get really comfortable with using AI in this way and understand the nuances of what it does well, what it doesn't, and really dive deep into the possibilities. I also think it serves as a fun way to see how AI is evolving and changing as it continues to learn more about what good lesson design and pedagogy looks like."

STRATEGIC PLANNING

St. Mark’s School
English Faculty

"The AI for Metacognition exploration prompted reflection on and examination of learning and it provided a contrast to the fear that AI will only lead to destructive cognitive offloading."

PEDAGOGY DESIGN

Phillips Academy Andover
Instructor in Mathematics, Statistics, and Computer Science

"Call me crazy, but I loved AI for Metacognition. It’s a doozy, but it really grabs the bull by the horns by wrestling with the most important divider between excellent and middling AI use."
