Effective communication is essential when developing programs, evaluations, and documentation across various settings. This panel explores how AI tools can support professionals in assessing and addressing their constituencies’ needs. The discussion begins with a broad overview on AI’s potential role in providing guidance across various fields with different communications. Then the panel will illustrate how AI can help teachers reduce workload while ensuring accuracy, personalization, and ethical considerations by presenting an example of AI-generated IEPs, highlighting usability, benefits, and limitations.
