Accuracy and appropriateness!!

Always keep these at the forefront...

• Remember the 80/20 rule
• AI is a TOOL to be used to make completing projects easier. It does not replace good teachers and their judgement!
• Don't blindly trust the results.

core four to get started

These are open-ended chatbots that will do pretty much whatever you ask with the right prompting. Just type in what you want and see what happens.

EDUaide or Magic School.ai

Great first step to AI. Both of these sites have built-in, premade tools to use to generate items helpful for teaching. They are very similar in tools and format.

Google Gemini or ChatGPT

Brisk Teaching

Curipod

Extension that works WITH Google workspace and the internet. Sort of a mesh between MagicSchool and Gemini. Enable the extension and have it to create from resources you already have.

AWESOME AI presentation tool that will create presentations, give individual feedback on the fly, and get your students interacting with the lesson materials. You can also upload your own presentations and enhance them with their tools.

Canva Code

Most of us are already familiar with the AWESOMENESS of Canva, but...now it codes.

Under "What will you design today?" choose "Canva AI" and then "Code for me"

Tell it what you want it to create for you. Be as specific as possible.

Canva Code

It will let you preview the game and make changes. Then, you can click "Use in a design" to embed the code in something the kids or you can interact with.

You can share the link with students in Google Classroom or assign directly from Canva. Preferred: Share as a link.

Let's Try one together...

If you don't have a Canva account, get with someone who does for now.

Similar to other chatbots, but it is GREAT for analyzing data and creating charts and synthesizing information. Remove ALL personally identifiable (last names, student id numbers, emails, etc) information from spreadsheets BEFORE you attach them!

Claude also has an "Artifacts" feature to create simple tools for you like with Canva Code.

Remember...NEVER put student information into AI!!!!

Let's Try one together...

Click the icon to make a quick copy of the example data...the student information has been removed for you. Click File: Download: CSV.

We will upload this downloaded file to Claude.

Let's Try one together...

Prompt: Analyze the linked spreadsheet for positives and negatives for each grade level's teachers. Provide a list of suggestions for each grade level's teachers' to work on and reinforce. Suggest action steps for the negative comments. Create a chart to compare the responses from the three grades.

Choose "Upload a File" and select the downloaded CSV. Be patient while it runs...
