Dr. Olivia Coleman discussed the increasing use of AI in IEP development, citing a 2024-2025 survey showing 57% of teachers use AI. AI aids in student data assessment, pattern identification, and IEP component drafting. While AI can enhance efficiency and quality, it raises legal, ethical, and privacy concerns. Dr. Coleman emphasized the need for responsible AI use, proposing a six-part guiding framework: professional responsibility, AI fluency, prompt crafting, individualization, transparency, and continuous learning. She highlighted the lack of specific district training on AI and the importance of using AI to improve IEP quality and teacher training, not just for efficiency.
