This full-day professional learning workshop equips teachers with the skills, tools, and confidence to integrate generative AI thoughtfully into their lesson planning and assessment design. Participants will explore practical ways to harness AI for curriculum alignment, personalised learning, and continuous assessment — while ensuring ethical and responsible use. The session encourages experimentation through guided hands-on activities, reflective exercises, and peer collaboration. By the end of the day, teachers will have refined existing lessons or assessments, developed strategies to embed AI-enhanced micro-assessments, and aligned their classroom practices with long-term EdTech planning. The workshop is grounded in practical frameworks like R.A.T., KAT, and Constructive Alignment, ensuring that teachers leave with actionable strategies for the 2026 school year and beyond.

Jim earned his master’s and doctoral degrees from the University of Liverpool (UK). His ongoing research focuses on how educators can reliably and safely harness the power of digital capabilities to support teaching and learning. Jim has also earned his post-doctoral diploma in academic practice in coordination with the Fellowship for Higher Education in the UK, where his current work includes action research related to the impact of generative AI in teaching and learning.
Through his work with Noodle Factory, Jim has the opportunity to work with teachers and instructors at all levels of education across many disciplines and faculties. Jim has advised and assisted dozens of secondary and tertiary educational institutions and educators in applying generative and conversational AI to teaching and learning. These include institutions and educators in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, India, Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, Mexico, and Europe. Jim is also currently involved in supporting the work of action researchers studying the impact of generative AI in teaching and learning at the University of London, Lusófona University (Portugal), and the Institute of Technical Education (ITE) in Singapore.
AI in Education Professional Development Series
Empowering Educators to Teach, Learn, and Lead inthe Age of Artificial Intelligence
Overview
This AI in Education Professional Learning Series is a cohesive set of one-day professional development workshops created in partnership between the Principals Academy and Dr Jim Wagstaff, co-founder of Noodle Factory and author of AI-Assisted Teaching and Learning: A Generative AI Field Guide for Educators. Each workshop focuses on a different dimension of AI’s role in teaching and learning — from foundational understanding to advanced integration and future readiness.
Designed for teachers across subject areas, these workshops balance academic rigour with classroom practicality. Participants will explore hands-on applications of AI, learn to evaluate and adapt digital tools responsibly, and build confidence in aligning AI use with sound pedagogical frameworks such as R.A.T., KAT, and Constructive Alignment. Every session blends demonstration, discussion, and design-based activities to ensure that teachers leave with actionable strategies ready for immediate classroom application.
The series supports the MOE’s broader vision for ethical, effective, and future-ready use of technology in schools — equipping educators to lead innovation, enhance inclusivity, and improve learning outcomes through thoughtful use of AI.
