What happens after you've introduced AI in the classroom-and want to go further?

Beyond the Basics: Embedding AI Across the Curriculum is a hands-on, forward-looking guide for educators ready to move past experimentation and into meaningful, sustained integration of AI tools across subjects, grade levels, and learning goals. Written by global educator and author Jacqueline Hadel, this book offers practical strategies, ethical insights, and real-world classroom examples to help schools transition from isolated AI use to systemic, thoughtful design.

From subject-specific planning to cross-curricular unit design, from AI-enhanced critical thinking to creative exploration-this book empowers teachers to not only use AI, but to weave it purposefully into how we teach, assess, and inspire students.

Perfect for K-12 teachers, instructional coaches, and school leaders seeking practical models for curriculum alignment, Beyond the Basics offers:

• Unit planning templates with embedded AI checkpoints

• Strategies for promoting agency, reflection, and ethics

• Discipline-specific use cases across STEM, humanities, the arts, and more

• Professional learning guides for building faculty confidence

If you've started your journey with AI-and are now asking "What's next?"-this book is your roadmap.

Because real transformation doesn't happen at the tool level. It happens at the curriculum level.
