In this edWebinar, Frog Street leaps into the realm of artificial intelligence (AI) and its implications for early childhood education. We aim to demystify AI, explain its application, offer guidance on seamless integration into workflows, and highlight both its potential and pitfalls in a classroom setting.

AI in early childhood education is a tool rather than a standalone solution for educators. At the same time, AI presents exciting opportunities—it cannot replace the need for meticulously crafted curricula and expert-vetted content, but it can help you get more done faster!

This recorded edWebinar is of interest to early childhood teachers, school and district leaders, and education technology leaders.
