# Session Overview

## Title
AI as Your Instructional Design Partner

## Core idea
AI works best as an instructional design partner when it is asked to walk a structured coaching conversation rather than produce a one-shot lesson plan.

## What participants leave with

1. Use ALDO as the design conversation.
2. Differentiate by role: teacher, instructional coach, or campus leader.
3. Audit AI drafts against ALDO, SOLO Taxonomy, and high-effect-size instructional strategies.

## Five-step workflow

1. **Frame** — Name the topic and learners.
2. **Prompt** — Assign the coach role and require the ALDO sequence.
3. **Run** — Answer clarifying questions before accepting a draft.
4. **Differentiate** — Switch the audience or role and re-run.
5. **Audit** — Use the six-question audit to decide keep, revise, or scrap.

## Design rule
Do not let AI jump straight to strategies. Relationship building and pre-assessment come first.
