As we celebrate World Teachers’ Day, it’s an important time to acknowledge that the role of teachers and how we support them is continuously evolving. This is especially true as we adapt to the age of AI. Over the last few months, we have been excited to see that across the education and technology communities, a shift is underway — one that moves beyond seeing teachers as implementers of AI-driven tools toward acknowledging their agency, expertise, and leadership in shaping how AI is used in education systems.
