    Welcome to the AATE Community!

    We are excited to welcome you to another year of connection, learning, and collaboration with the AATE community. Please register today! This will be one of our strongest meetings of the year. 

    Our first gathering is shaping up to be an exciting one. On September 18, we hope to meet at Google’s Atlanta headquarters for a day focused on AI and Generative AI in K–12 education.

    The meeting will be hosted by Sean Maxwell, Google Customer Engineer, who has also invited AI educators and experts from Georgia Tech to join us. 

    The working agenda includes:

    • AI and GenAI in today’s classrooms
    • Real-world examples of AI integration in schools
    • Rethinking assessment in the age of AI
    • A hands-on vibe coding experience
    • NotebookLM and Gemini use cases for educators
    • Google's Antigravity- Agentic Development Platform
    • Google's AI Studio

    We are waiting on the final details, but we wanted to give you an early look at what is ahead. Initial agenda - this will change as we hear from Google. Also, if you want to share a 15 min mini-Ted talk...please email me. We have room for a few. 

    Two more exciting announcements:

    • Data in Schools is coming to the Americas for the first time! Atlanta International School will host the conference on October 8–9 with the theme, Seeing the Whole Child in the Data. Educators and speakers from Atlanta and around the world will gather to explore how data can better support students. Learn more about the conference.
    • Lighthouse ATL is now accepting proposals! Mount Vernon Ventures will host this new conference at Mount Vernon School on February 22–23, 2027. With the theme Navigate Change. Design Learning. Illuminate the Future., Lighthouse ATL will bring educators together to share ideas, practices, and possibilities for the future of learning. Submit a proposal.

    We are excited about the year ahead and look forward to learning, experimenting, and connecting together!

        I hope to see you soon!

      ABOUT AATE
      The Atlanta Area Technology Educators (AATE) organization began more than thirty years ago with six members. Our current contacts include over 225 technology educators with an average of 100  members attending quarterly meetings.
      The members consist of technology leaders, classroom teachers, and administrators from public and private schools, education and technology consultants, as well as a small number of vendors. Each year, AATE members meet quarterly to network and share ideas. 
      Meetings typically occur on school days from 11am-2pm during the school year, usually in September, November, February and April. Each meeting is hosted by a different member school, a University, or a local technology related industry. 

      AATE exists to support technology educators in networking, innovation and leadership.
