About the presenter
Becca Glassberg is the Director of Technology at SAR Academy (Salanter Akiba Riverdale Academy), a K-12 Jewish day school in Riverdale, New York, where she leads the school's technology strategy, AI literacy initiatives, and digital citizenship program. She also teaches 6th grade Social Studies and runs Middot and Media, SAR's homegrown digital citizenship curriculum that weaves Jewish values into technology education.
Becca has spent the past several years building AI literacy programs from the ground up, designing professional development experiences that meet teachers where they are and help them move from curiosity to confidence. She believes the best way to learn AI is to use it, which is why her workshops skip the theory and jump straight into real workflows, real tools, and real classroom applications. Her sessions are known for being hands-on, practical, and grounded in the actual day-to-day of teaching.
In addition to her work at SAR, Becca has partnered with The Jewish Education Project to co-facilitate AI professional development for teachers across the Jewish day school community. She writes about teaching, technology, and the unexpected lessons that find us at beccaglassberg.substack.com.
Becca brings both the educator's perspective and the technologist's toolkit to every room she walks into, and she is genuinely excited about what happens when teachers stop being afraid of AI and start making it work for them.
