Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly changing education, yet many educators have been left with more questions than answers. They are encouraged to explore AI while being warned about its risks. They are told to prepare students for the future but are often left wondering how to integrate AI as an enhancement-not a replacement-for meaningful teaching and learning.
Rather than focusing on trends, tools, or collections of prompts, Real Learning with Artificial Intelligence introduces the NIPA Framework-a practical model that helps educators integrate AI into curriculum and instruction. Together, the four layers of the framework create meaningful AI-supported learning experiences that encourage creativity, critical thinking, and authentic student learning.
Drawing on decades of classroom, instructional technology, and educational leadership experience, Janice A. Santos provides concrete guidance, real-world examples, and practical strategies for educators who want to use AI responsibly, ethically, and effectively. The NIPA Framework offers a thoughtful, sustainable approach to integrating artificial intelligence while keeping human intelligence at the center of every educational decision.
