From Static to Interactive — Transforming Professional Communication Materials with Agentic AI and Vibe Coding
Learn to use an AI agent — hands-on — by directing one to turn a published article into an interactive micro-lesson. From static to agentic, no slides.

Why a language teacher teaches vibe coding — a note on my background
I majored in History and minored in Computer Science at Washington University in St. Louis. That minor turned out to matter far more than I expected: computational thinking — breaking a problem into steps, naming things precisely, testing and refining — is exactly the training you need to communicate effectively with AI. Vibe coding is not about writing code yourself; it is professional communication with an agent, and computational thinking is its grammar.
