Presented by Dr. Elfrieda “Freddy” Hiebert, President and CEO, TextProject, January 14, 2025
How can artificial intelligence help improve vocabulary instruction? AI is a hot topic in education, but this technology is so new that best practices for the classroom are still being established.
In this webinar, Dr. Elfrieda “Freddy” H. Hiebert, TextProject founder & CEO, explores opportunities to use AI to help strengthen vocabulary instruction and enhance students’ literacy skills.
Leveraging AI-generated insights has the potential to enhance vocabulary acquisition across all grades and subjects, revolutionizing word learning in education! AI can be used to:
- Analyze language data and identify word features affecting student learning, such as morphology, exposure age, abstraction, and frequency
- Select target words and reading materials more efficiently
- Move beyond traditional definition-based methods and support teaching vocabulary through strategically chosen words and texts
All educators with an interest in literacy—especially K-12 classroom teachers, reading coaches, literacy leaders, instructional leaders, special educators, and curriculum directors—are encouraged to attend this edWebinar. There will be time for questions at the end of the presentation.
