This session moves through four parts: Understand, Fix-It, Build Sprint, and Commit & Share. Open each resource when prompted by the facilitator.

Today’s goal: Leave with one classroom-ready access support, one saved reusable routine, and one OSAMR check you can defend.

Build Sprint Toolkit

Build Sprint Rule

Start with your HQIM source. Paste the learning target, task, success criteria, and exact access barrier into your prompt. Do not ask AI to invent the lesson, the standard, or the student thinking.

Build Path Choose This When... Open
Prompt Routine You want a fast, reusable way to simplify directions, create sentence starters, chunk text, or support vocabulary. Prompt Routine Template
Google Gem / Custom Tool You want a reusable assistant for one classroom support routine you will use again. Gem Build Guide
NotebookLM You need the AI output grounded in a specific article, HQIM document, lesson text, or source file. NotebookLM Setup Guide
Advanced Routine Your support requires multiple steps, a saved workflow, or more structured automation. Advanced Routine Template

Before You Submit

OSAMR Check

  • Did the support remove the access barrier?
  • Do students still understand, decide, explain, or justify?
  • Did the learning target stay the same?

HQIM Check

  • The support matches the source lesson or task.
  • The facts, vocabulary, examples, and success criteria are accurate.
  • AI did not invent answers or standards alignment.

AI Guidance Check

  • No student names, grades, IEP details, or protected information.
  • Check for accuracy, bias, translation issues, and plagiarism risk.
  • Use approved tools and district guidance.

Final Submission

Submit your completed support and one sentence of OSAMR evidence. Your evidence should explain what barrier was removed and what thinking students still have to do.

Submission sentence frame:

This support removes the barrier of [barrier] while students still have to [thinking students must do], so the learning target remains unchanged.

Session Reminder

AI may remove a barrier. It should not do the learning. Before students use any AI-supported material, verify privacy, accuracy, bias, accessibility, and alignment to the original learning target.
