This study seeks to document and interpret teachers' lived experiences as they navigate the promises and challenges of AI in their classrooms. Using phenomenological interviews, the research captures the authentic voices of high school teachers across three dimensions of effectiveness: instructional design, assessment, and classroom management. Grounded in the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) framework, the study will generate insight into how educators balance innovation, pedagogy, and ethics. By addressing this critical gap, the study will provide policymakers, teacher education programs, and professional development leaders with actionable guidance on supporting teachers through this technological shift. Ultimately, this research seeks to ensure that the integration of AI strengthens, rather than replaces, the professional judgment and creativity that define effective teaching.
The purpose of this study is to learn more about how metastatic breast cancer changes over time and how those changes may affect which treatments work best. By studying tumor tissue and blood samples, researchers hope to identify specific features, called biomarkers, that can help match each person to the treatment that's most likely to help them. This information may also help doctors better understand why some cancers respond to treatment and others do not, so that future patients can receive more personalized care.
