One of my favorite projects from the past year has been helping this NYC public high school conceptualize a 10-week curriculum in selling their artistic works on Etsy.

We used AI to smash together a lot of different things at once (including online guides from Etsy's team, real examples of lesson plans, and training up teachers on custom GPTs) to create an AI-powered, work-based learning module for high school juniors and seniors.

It's so cool to see creativity + entrepreneurship intersect in this way in a traditional academic setting, and I hope to see a lot more experiments like this in the years ahead.

"Working with Playlab, a platform that uses AI to enhance teaching and learning, we condensed Etsy’s seller toolkit into a 10-week unit plan based on the typical unit plan format at the High School of Art and Design."

wow, that sounds amazing! love how tech is being used to shake up education. can’t wait to see how students unleash their creativity! 🙌🎨
