As instructional learning hurtles toward AI, educators are starting to question the relationship between math and technology.

In many ways, the two subjects are inextricably linked, but if educators aren’t careful, students could wind up becoming too reliant on artificial intelligence to the exclusion of developing strong—and necessary—math skills. How should the field be thinking about these subject areas?

Join us for a thought-provoking discussion on the future of math education in the age of AI.

Work on research-to-practice connections for the education community is supported in part by a grant from Spencer Foundation, at www.spencer.org. Education Week retains sole editorial control over the content of this coverage.
