June Live Lab: Creating AI Virtual Assistants for Teachers
Raise your hand if your to-do list is endless! Are you overwhelmed with drafting routine emails, leveling instructional materials, managing classroom communications? Do you feel like the repetitive tasks leave little time for the creative, meaningful work you actually became a teacher to do? Don’t you wish you had a way to handle the administrative load without sacrificing quality?
In this Live Lab we’ll work to build a workflow that handles the repetitive stuff so you can focus on connecting with students and amplifying your content. Because your time matters!

What Are CALIE Live Labs?
CALIE Live Labs is not just another PD opportunity—it’s a paradigm shift in how educators can learn and grow.
If you’re tired of:
- Professional development that feels like wasted time
- Knowing about tools but never feeling confident enough to use them
- Innovating alone without support or recognition
- Learning that doesn’t connect to your classroom or campus
Then Live Labs is built for you.
You’ll create real resources, connect with real educators, receive real recognition, and walk away with real confidence. And you’ll do it in a way that actually fits into your life, not another obligation that drains you, but an experience that energizes and empowers you.
CALIE Live Labs are for educators at any grade level or role who want practical, collaborative support solving real classroom and school challenges.
No prior experience with specific tools is required—Live Labs focus on adaptable strategies that work across classrooms, roles, and contexts.
