Will AI change your students' careers? We reviewed Orchard, an AI-driven career and college platform for schools. Here is what it does: 1. Explore: dive deep into any career path, ask the AI questions, and see which colleges fit. 2. Plan: save a career, build an action plan, and use a money planning tool to see what the path realistically looks like. 3. Learn (soon): courses and training so students can get better prepared. Why it matters: college counselors are often asked to guide dozens, if not hundreds, of students. They can't do that effectively on their own. Orchard is much more than a wrapper around AI. @orchardcareers is an approved software partner with Curriki, so your school can apply for a grant for Orchard today.

What if AI could take the planning burden off your next PBL unit? Jonathan Brusco has spent over a decade designing makerspaces and teaching in project-based learning environments. In The AI-Assisted PBL Classroom, he shows educators how to use AI as a real design partner, with every resource tested in actual classrooms. In 5 short modules (about 90 minutes), you'll learn to: - Build engaging lessons with prompt funnels and a two-step process - Design projects around the materials already on your shelves - Write custom narratives and level challenges for any grade - Create process rubrics and AI simulations to test ideas early - Turn student journals into videos and newsletters for families You'll walk away with a ready-to-teach PBL unit and the prompts to run it again next term.
