Throwback to a dynamic panel at HolonIQ 'Back to School' Summit in NYC! Speakers Cecilia Marshall from Partnership for Education Advancement, Shanika Hope, PhD from Google, and #KaporFoundation's own Allison Scott, Ph.D. tackle the critical question: Is AI going to be a powerful tool to dismantle barriers in education, or will it deepen divides?

At HolonIQ Summit, we talked about how institutions that succeed with AI think about it as part of a broader cultural shift, not just tech implementation. They focus on innovation at every level: + Individuals mastering AI for personal productivity—like the professor who built a GPT to draft recommendation letters using templates and personal stories. + Teams using AI to solve group challenges—like a school district leveraging ChatGPT to streamline course scheduling and room assignments. + Organizations embedding AI into their core, with universities creating GPTs for orientation, career services, and classrooms—redefining the campus experience. When I talk to institutions aiming to become AI Native, I emphasize starting small—individuals first, then teams, and finally the entire organization. Building a strong foundation is key before tackling complex solutions. If you're at a university or school district, would love to hear how you're thinking about your AI transformation!
