What will you do in 3 days
Day 1
Prompts, Bias, and Creative AI Applications in Teaching
You will begin by exploring how AI is reshaping the educational landscape and why it matters for your teaching practice. From there, you’ll dive into how AI systems work, including what causes errors and hidden biases. You’ll then learn a practical method for writing clear, effective prompts that produce useful results. You’ll also explore key issues around the ethical use of AI and data safety practices, and learn to identify biased responses.
Day 2
From Tool to Thought Partner
On day 2, you’ll be using AI tools to design engaging learning materials—such as games, visual aids, and interactive activities—that bring new energy into your classroom. You also learn how to use AI to enhance your to streamline your work and personal productivity.
The final day focuses on creating responsive, personalized learning environments. You will create dynamic assessments using AI. You will learn how to analyze assessment data to develop differentiated and adaptive learning pathways, empowering you to meet the unique needs of every student. You will discover how to use AI. You will also learn how to leverage AI for personal and professional growth, building a strategic roadmap for your learning.
Day 3
AI for Assessment and Professional Development
Why this course is important
Something I've been noticing in my talks with schools and teachers lately is this huge excitement around specialized AI tools that help design lesson plans and assessments. And honestly, that's really good to see. We're finally moving past the "suspicion" phase and into more curious exploration.
But I've just been pondering this tool-centric approach. It feels like it might be giving us a bit of an illusion of AI literacy.
Because mastering a tool, especially with how fast tech moves these days, doesn't quite feel like a sustainable way to build true AI understanding.
It’s like owning a super fancy calculator and thinking it would make one a math genius. That can’t be true, right? You need to understand the principles of math, the concepts, the 'why' behind the 'how.' Only then can you actually use that calculator effectively to do good math, to solve real problems, to truly understand what's happening.
When AI is used as a product and not embedded in our pedagogy, you get efficiency only, which is awesome for productivity, but we miss the much bigger, more profound opportunity to truly transform education.
That's why this course doesn't just focus on making things easier for you now that AI is available. Instead, we'll aim to do things that weren't possible before. You'll learn how to design lessons that promote higher-order thinking, create engaging activities that capture students' interest, and use AI to support personalized learning.
