Overview
Despite what you may have heard, ChatGPT and other generative AI tools offer exciting possibilities for innovative teaching and personalized education. This hands-on specialization is designed for K-12 educators looking to harness AI to enhance lesson planning, engage students, and foster creativity—no prior experience with ChatGPT, AI, or prompt engineering required!
What You’ll Learn Throughout this specialization, you’ll gain practical skills to:
✅ Generate engaging lesson plans tailored to student interests—like teaching fractions through Pokémon. ✅ Create interactive games and printable learning materials—such as a World Cup-inspired math game. ✅ Design AI-powered class activities—like students building their own fictional characters and crafting funny fill-in-the-blank stories. ✅ Help students think innovatively—such as brainstorming how to build a paperclip-and-bottle bridge strong enough to hold a person. ✅ Generate personalized quizzes on demand—allowing students to test themselves on topics they care about, like BMX racing geometry. These techniques are adaptable to any subject or student level, making learning more interactive, creative, and fun!
Our students are growing up in a world where tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and LLama will be integral to how they learn and work. But truly succeeding with AI requires a new mindset—one that amplifies critical thinking rather than replaces it.
