SUMMARY:VALRC: Lessons from the Field with Xavier Muñoz: Using Artificial Intelligence (AI) to Reduce Lesson Planning Time
DESCRIPTION:In this interactive webinar\, explore free AI tools (ChatGPT\, Bing Chat\, Bard\, Claude) that can help you spend less time on lesson planning and more time on learner engagement. Whether you need to write lessons from scratch or adapt textbook activities\, we’ll have fun trying out strategies for giving prompts to an AI tool. \nBy the end of this session\, participants will be able to: \n\nidentify at least two ways that generative AI tools can help tackle challenges they face in lesson planning;\nwrite an effective prompt or iterate back and forth with a generative AI tool to create materials\, activities\, or lesson plans;\nand\, identify some limitations of generative AI tools.\n\nRegister here.
