Texas educators are leading through extraordinary growth and change, strengthening instruction, navigating an AI-shaped future, and meeting the needs of all learners. ISTE+ASCD supports that work with professional learning focused on Texas priorities, from high-quality instructional materials and literacy and math instruction to preparing students for a rapidly evolving workforce.
As Texas moves from AI policy to practice, GenerationAI offers free, credentialed AI professional learning — educator-designed and built for Google and Microsoft ecosystems already used in Texas districts.
ISTE+ASCD's standards are embedded in Texas education — cited by TEA work groups as reference frameworks for the Technology Applications TEKS, at both the curriculum and teacher preparation levels.
A competency-based pathway for CAOs, principals, and coaches, with three role-based tracks and district cohort options to build coherent instructional culture school-wide.
ISTE+ASCD's instructional frameworks and PD pathways give districts and EPP partners the structured, ongoing support to help new teachers grow from day one through year three.
Profile of an AI-Ready Graduate™
Texas educators are redefining what readiness looks like for their students in the age of AI. The Profile of an AI-Ready Graduate™ names what success looks like — not which tools students use, but what they can do: investigate, synthesize, connect across differences, and communicate with purpose. A clear vision for the work Texas classrooms are already doing.
“We need to ensure we have a process that reaches every student, allowing each one to respond and receive feedback.” –Selami Bingol, Dean of College and Career, Harmony School of Innovation, Harmony Public School
Selami Bingol, joined the first cohort of GenerationAI's Communities of Practice for building leaders.
Teacher agency was central to the pilot's success: teachers set their own questions and rubrics, keeping AI in a supporting role.
Selami used Google NotebookLM and Canva AI to streamline classroom observation feedback and support staff — tools already embedded in Texas districts.
