Why Brisk Teaching?

Teaching is all about connections, but often, our tools don't connect as they should. That's where Brisk comes in. Brisk is an AI driven Chrome extension that exists within the Google environment. Brisk is naturally built into where you are already working, so it’s not an additional thing to manage. No copy and pasting, no jumping between apps. With Brisk you can:

  • Quickly and effectively give feedback to your students
  • Examine student writing in-depth
  • Develop engaging instructional materials
  • Easily adjust text difficulty and translate materials to meet student needs
  • Boost any online resource into an interactive student activity
Teachers love Brisk for its ease of use: “I didn’t have to learn Brisk; it’s so intuitive. It figured out what I wanted and it didn't take any extra time.” - Nicole, High School English Teacher

AI Best Practices

  • Use the 80/20 rule: Brisk will get you 80% of the way there. We encourage you to review for accuracy and to add your personalization to make the material relevant to your students. “Own the thinking, outsource the doing.”
  • Check for bias and accuracy: AI may occasionally produce incorrect content. Always double-check before sharing with students.
  • Use Brisk as your planning and brainstorming partner: AI can be valuable for inspiration, feedback, and support.
  • Be as specific as possible when typing into Brisk’s textbox.
