The first brief from FullScale’s Rural AI Strategy Lab, synthesizing what’s emerging across rural schools adopting AI. It highlights key patterns in adoption, including early informal use, policy-practice gaps, and operational-first entry points. The brief offers a grounded view of how rural systems are approaching AI in practice and the conditions that support more coherent implementation.
This paper reframes common narratives about AI replacing teachers by examining how current role definitions shape that perception and where those assumptions break down. It outlines a vision for redesigning educator roles around professional judgment, relational work, and learning design, and identifies the structural shifts needed to support that transition.
