2026 Moore Learning Conference

In this professional development session, teachers will examine practical strategies for using AI tools to support rigorous social studies inquiry, strengthen primary and secondary source analysis, and elevate student argumentation. Participants will engage with classroom-ready examples that show how AI can be used to generate guiding questions, model historical reasoning, and provide timely feedback—while still preserving the essential cognitive work students must do themselves. The session will emphasize designing tasks where students critically evaluate AI-generated content, identify bias or inaccuracies, and use evidence to confirm or challenge responses. Attention will also be given to ethical considerations, including academic integrity, appropriate use, and helping students develop responsible AI literacy.
