2024 Northwest Mathematics Conference

Despite indications that Generative AI (GAI) responses to mathematical prompts are not yet robust, there is a notable progression in the technology's ability to provide more accurate and contextually relevant answers. Through a collection of example prompts and responses we demonstrate that GAI as a promising tool for educational support, contingent on careful scrutiny and responsible use by educators and learners. We will work with participants to generate additional questions to support real-time exploration of the potentials and limitations of GAI.

Through personal stories, neuroscience, and play, this workshop explores the intersection of math education and learning disabilities, highlighting how AI is transforming our roles as educators. We'll challenge traditional concepts of learning disabilities, showing how AI offers new pathways for those with diverse learning needs in math to engage with the world. Discover how AI not only reframes our understanding but also enriches math learning for all.
