Build-a-Bot Workshop: Practical MagicSchool Chatbots for Any Experience Level
LIMITED
Friday May 29, 2026 2:45pm - 4:15pm CDT
Limited Capacity seats available
This session is designed for everyone, from first-time users to MagicSchool “magicians,” with clear entry points and extension options throughout. Teachers will learn how to move from using existing MagicSchool chatbots to designing custom bots that support instruction and student buy-in. We will start with common use cases like character conversations, debate partners, and writing feedback. Then we will explore custom bots for escape rooms, dynamic student interaction, and student goal creation. Teachers will leave with a polished, ready-to-use chatbot they can plug into instruction next year, plus collaboration strategies for building, revising, and sharing bots across a team so they stay valuable over time.
