Vibe Coding 101
Programming is shifting from complex syntax to natural language—a movement known as "vibe coding."
In this hands-on session, we move beyond the hype to define what vibe coding is, where its limits lie, and how educators can use it to build functional digital tools from simple prompts. Through a live demonstration and real classroom examples, participants will turn a pedagogical idea into a working prototype—no technical background required. From custom quizzes to classroom resource generators, we explore what's possible and what's not, and help participants evaluate whether this approach fits their specific teaching goals.
Walk away with a working prototype and a clear sense of when vibe coding is the right tool for the job.
Led by Kristen Kayser of aiEDU, this hands-on workshop is part of aiEDU’s statewide Vibe Coding Workshop Series, delivered through their partnership with the Ohio Department of Education and Workforce.
No coding experience is needed!
