Close your eyes (while reading this may be difficult, but just play along)… and imagine stepping into a Student Support Team Meeting with an automated agenda rich with recent student academic and behavioral context. As you start the meeting, real-time note capture kicks in and summarizes your discussion with colleagues and parents.
Together, your team creates a plan that is laser-focused on measurable student outcomes. The meeting ends with a review of the plan along with clear, organized next steps.
Now open your eyes! This scenario is not a dream but a new reality, thanks to the Branching Minds Meeting Assistant.💡
If you’re like me, you have questions about how it works. So as we dig in, I’d like to share the Branching Minds approach to AI in education!
AI in Education
AI can take over some of the mundane tasks on your already full plate, giving you more breathing room. By reducing this cognitive load, AI can free up time for educators to focus on what they love about their work: teaching and creating meaningful interactions with their students.
Instead of spending hours differentiating meetings for students with different needs, AI can help create accessible and customized meeting content at lightning speed. It’s like having a tech-savvy teaching assistant who’s always ready to jump in!
Our new feature, the Branching Minds Meeting Assistant, has integrated advanced AI technology that leverages AI to source recent student academic, behavior, wellness, and feedback insights. This AI-driven feature reduces prep time from hours to minutes—relieving the burden on educators and ensuring each meeting is productive, collaborative, and centered on student success!
AI Security, Please!
In today’s digital era, where data privacy concerns are more pronounced than ever, ensuring AI security in education is paramount. The sensitive nature of student data demands stringent safeguards to protect against unauthorized access and misuse.
This is especially critical in educational settings where:
- Data integrity affects institutional operations
- Significantly impacts the lives and futures of students
By maintaining a closed network for its AI features, Branching Minds ensures that sensitive data remains secure and is used solely to benefit educators and students.
Our commitment is underscored by our membership with the EDSAFE AI Industry Council, promoting the safe use of AI in educational technology. Branching Minds is FERPA compliant and never uses the data used or generated within the platform (including student PII) to train outside LLMs. Student data remains fully secure—never using customer data for model training, ensuring the highest standards of privacy and compliance.
MTSS and AI in Today's Classroom
Time is a coveted resource. Educators constantly seek ways to streamline processes without sacrificing quality or effectiveness.

Heather Davis, a Special Education Teacher at Unadilla Valley, says it best: "All my staff had to do was show up with a smile on their face and their device. To get the quality you get from Branching Minds Meeting Assistant would take you at least an hour. Many staff members would find it so overwhelming they wouldn’t do it and just rely on their own observations. This keeps us focused on the data.” |
Welcome to a new era where technology transforms meetings from overwhelming obstacles into opportunities for growth and success.
