A course by Jessica Lane · made for K-12
AI that fits in your prep period.
A self-paced course for K-12 teachers and admins who are buried in writing, planning, and paperwork. Use Claude to chew through the boring 80% of your job so you can do the human 20%. Built around FERPA from day one.
8 modules · ~6 hours · lifetime access · works in any district
no new things on your plate, promise →
You're not behind on AI.
You're buried in work.
Every AI-for-teachers course tells you to do more. New activities. New assessments. New pedagogy. New ways to catch cheating kids. That is not what you need.
You need the parent emails written. The IEP frameworks drafted. The sub plan generated. The Sunday-night spiral to be 20 minutes instead of 4 hours.
This course is about that.
Prompt Period teaches K-12 educators how to use Claude (Cowork preferred, plain Claude.ai if your district blocks it) to handle the writing, planning, and documentation you're already doing every week. We treat FERPA like it actually matters. You'll set up an “AI Workspace” sandbox, learn what NEVER goes in, and get your nights and weekends back.
No prompts to memorize. No new student-facing tools. Just your real job, faster.
The hill we will die on
The AI course that takes FERPA seriously.
Most “AI for teachers” courses cheerfully tell you to upload your IEPs. We don't. The first thing we teach is the Never List: what NEVER goes into AI, no matter how time-saving it would be. Then we teach the AI Workspace sandbox pattern so AI only sees what you deliberately put in front of it. Never your whole drive. Never your gradebook. Never a student name.
The syllabus
8 modules. ~6 hours. Every one ends with a real workflowyou'll use this week.
Why this isn't another thing on your plate
The frame. Why AI for your existing work, not new pedagogy.
One real win in 20 minutes
Walk through your first lesson plan, parent email, or rubric. No student data needed.
Set up safely (Cowork or Claude.ai)
The AI Workspace sandbox. The single most important module in the course.
Skills + memory
Stop re-explaining yourself. Teach AI your voice, your grade, your context, once.
Writing workflows
Parent emails, newsletters, eval write-ups, board reports, sub plans. Every example uses placeholders.
Planning workflows
Lessons, differentiation, rubrics, agendas, master schedule fixes.
Documentation workflows
IEP/BIP/504 frameworks (never the real doc), MTSS notes, incident reports.
FERPA + district policy + your final build
The privacy module that doesn't suck. Plus your finished AI Workspace.

still mad about PD
I'm a former K-12 teacher and school leader. Now co-founder of Symplifyed, an MTSS and behavior platform built for the teachers we used to be.
I've spent the last 10 years inside school buildings, doing the writing, the planning, the documentation, the IEP meetings, the 9pm parent emails. I built this course because I've watched too many good teachers leave the profession because of the paperwork pile, not the kids.
I have an 8-year-old, a stack of half-finished books, and a strong opinion about AI in schools: it should support the human work, not replace it,and it should never see your students' names.
Questions teachers actually ask.
Do I need to use Cowork? My district blocks new apps.
No. The course teaches both Cowork (preferred) and Claude.ai (works on any browser). Same workflows, different mechanism.
Is this FERPA-compliant?
The course teaches FERPA-aligned practices. It teaches you to NEVER put student data into AI in the first place. That's the safest possible posture, and we walk through it in detail.
How long until I'm done?
~6 hours of video, plus the activities. Most teachers finish in 2-3 weeks doing one module per night.
What if my admin asks why I'm using AI?
Module 8 includes scripts for talking to admin, district IT, and parents about your AI use. You'll come out with a defensible position.
Refunds?
14 days. If module 3 hasn't saved you 5 hours, you get your money back. Email me.
Does this work for admins, not just teachers?
Yes. Modules 5-7 include admin-specific workflows (observations, evaluations, board reports, MTSS notes, master schedule).
Will you keep updating it?
Yes. AI changes fast. You get all updates free for life.
Why $149?
It's stipend territory. Most districts will reimburse it. If yours won't, email me and we'll work something out.
