I heard Matt speak at the CAPSS/CSDE Innovation Conference last year and I knew I wanted him to speak to our staff. When he opened the year at Old Saybrook, teachers, and para-educators were excited and overwhelmed with his knowledge about A.I. and its implications for our classrooms and learning. Besides being knowledgeable, Matt has a very engaging style of presenting.

Since Matt Mervis' presentation on AI and the accompanying activities to kick off our academic year, I have received nothing but positive feedback from a variety of stakeholders. Everyone found the presentation to be informative, engaging, and well-received. I would welcome the opportunity to work with our staff again on this important topic and will recommend him to my colleagues across the state!

Matt brought humor, music, and an accessible approach that engaged educators in a conversation about Artificial Intelligence. He was able to balance aspirational ideas with practical concerns and provided us with a common point of entry as we figure out the role AI will play in our instructional practice.
