New free video resources for teachers
Hopefully you have had a chance to see some of my new (and free) video resources titled Top DigiTips for Busy Teachers. The first three episodes are based on the following generative AI topics:
- Dealing with hallucinations — when Gen AI gets it wrong
- Understanding Gen AI bias
- The art & science of prompting
Please share these with your networks.
To all school leaders
Register soon for the Educator Intelligence Live! Pre-Conference Masterclass, on Monday 18 May, running alongside the AI in Education Conference in NSW.
This isn’t another sit-and-listen session about ChatGPT. It’s a focused, practical masterclass for leaders who are ready to move from curiosity to capability: the landscape of tools at your fingertips, assessment integrity, differentiation, and what responsible implementation actually looks like in a K–12 school.
AI Governance support
As generative AI rapidly reshapes education, many school leaders are recognising the need for clear governance, practical policies, and sustainable implementation strategies. CulturePathAI works alongside school leadership teams to build the foundations for safe, ethical, and effective AI adoption through a strong governance-first approach.
Their support includes strategic planning, policy development, risk management, staff capability building, and practical guidance aligned with emerging Australian frameworks for AI in schools — helping schools make informed, culturally aligned decisions that strengthen leadership confidence while supporting responsible innovation across teaching, learning, operations, and community engagement.
I am very pleased to be part of the CulturePathAI team as a Senior Consultant and encourage your school or school system to see how we can help.
Attention Sydney teachers
Come to my special Gen AI workshop at St Andrew’s Cathedral School on Tuesday 19 May:
Using generative AI to enhance (not replace) creative teaching & learning.
This hands-on professional learning event empowers teachers to explore how generative AI can support (not replace) creativity, critical thinking, and authentic learning.

The Kitchen Think
The May edition of The Kitchen Think is titled Critical Thinking: The Essential Skill for Students in the Age of Generative AI. I argue that the rapid rise of generative AI has made critical thinking one of the most essential skills for modern education, and highlight that while Critical and Creative Thinking has been part of the Australian Curriculum’s General Capabilities since 2010, it has often been treated as a secondary priority.
Independent Schools NSW ICT Management and Leadership Conference
I was honoured to be invited to run five workshops/presentations at the Independent Schools NSW ICT Management and Leadership Conference on the Gold Coast (29 April to 1 May). Four of those sessions were with my friend and colleague Matt Esterman as we explored a range of topics to help ICT Managers and school leaders manage the influx of Gen AI solutions being used by students and teachers across the education process.
