Overview
What if every school could solve its own digital problems without needing a team of developers? This interactive workshop introduces participants to vibe coding: the creative process of using conversational AI to collaboratively design and build custom tools, workflows, and prototypes. Our team uses vibe coding to identify pain points across teaching, administration, and student services, then co-create quick, AI-assisted solutions directly in our systems using tools like Claude AI. These projects have ranged from micro-apps that automate repetitive admin tasks to interactive learning tools.
Participants will first explore examples of what’s possible, then work in small groups to map their own school’s “friction points” and learn how to frame prompts and project briefs that AI can turn into usable prototypes. Participants will:
• Understand the concept of vibe coding and its educational potential
• Learn a practical workflow for identifying and framing school challenges AI can solve
• See real examples of AI-generated school tools and systems
• Leave with a draft blueprint for their own AI-driven improvement project
