AI is quickly becoming an everyday feature of the classroom. Education industry leaders and researchers say schools must equip teachers with clear guidance, practical training, and a voice in shaping how it is used.
New research from the Walton Family Foundation, the Bipartisan Policy Center, and Gallup finds that 71% of teachers have a paid position beyond their primary teaching job. One in five says they find it difficult to get by financially.
Teachers who use AI weekly save an average of 5.9 hours per week — equivalent to six extra weeks each school year. Explore how teachers are using AI in the classroom, the challenges they face, and the potential of these tools to save time, personalize instruction, and support student success.
To improve student outcomes for Gen Zers and beyond, the Walton Family Foundation partnered with Gallup to ask nearly 2,000 public K-12 teachers what they need to stay and thrive in the profession. By providing educators with the resources, autonomy, and opportunities for growth they need, schools can retain talent and prepare students for a brighter future.
As new tools show AI's emerging potential, educators are eager to learn how to better use the technology to boost student achievement.
