The AI–Educator Playbook

The AI–Educator Playbook serves as both a mirror and a guide for educators navigating the transformative era of artificial intelligence in education. The advent of generative AI in classrooms has upended traditional notions of teaching, feedback, and academic integrity. Rather than succumbing to fear, hype, or resistance, this book empowers educators to embrace thoughtful, evidence-based practices that harness the potential of AI. Grounded in global research and enriched by real-world stories from classrooms and universities, the author explores how AI can enhance assessment, foster inclusion, support writing, improve advising, and even influence institutional governance. Each chapter blends theory with actionable strategies, offering clear learning outcomes, common pitfalls, safeguards, and practical exercises that can be immediately applied in higher education or professional settings. With a focus on staying human in a digital age, this text invites readers and educators to rethink what education can become in partnership with AI.
