Five Star Technology Solutions to Launch AI and Accessibility Forum for Educators in Indianapolis

Five Star Technology Solutions Hosts AI and Accessibility Forum

Five Star Technology Solutions, a prominent figure in the K-12 educational technology sector for over two decades, is excited to announce its inaugural AI and Accessibility Forum. This significant event is scheduled for September 22, 2025, at the University of Indianapolis and aims to unite K-12 educators and teacher preparation faculty in a shared mission to enhance educational inclusivity.

In an age where technology is transforming the educational landscape, the forum will provide a platform for educators to explore how Google’s AI tools can enhance accessibility in the classroom. Drawing on the principles of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) developed by CAST, the forum is designed to foster more inclusive learning environments. The integration of AI tools is paramount in developing better educational practices that accommodate diverse learning needs.

The event will feature a series of professional learning sessions led by experts from CAST, the creators of UDLinteractive. Attendees can expect hands-on opportunities to experiment with cutting-edge AI technologies and devise strategies that promote student access and agency, offering a blend of theory and practice.

Stephanie Waring, Senior Director of Professional Development at Five Star Technology Solutions, expressed the organization's commitment to supporting educators navigating the ever-evolving educational demands. She stated, "We recognize the increasing pressure on educators, both in K-12 and higher education, to integrate innovative technologies and inclusive practices. This forum exemplifies our dedication to equipping educators with the practical strategies necessary for success in today’s classrooms."

In addition to the forum, this event also marks a pivotal moment in the rollout of Five Star Higher Ed Solutions, a new suite of services aimed at empowering teacher preparation and transition-to-teaching programs. The research-driven services provide faculty with practical strategies and technology-integrated solutions that aim to weave technology, UDL, and STEM pedagogy into their coursework effectively.

Leaders in education eager to drive innovation with AI, deepen their understanding of K-12 accessibility features, or learn more about Five Star's extensive solutions are strongly encouraged to register for the event.
