Course Outline
AI in Education: Foundations and Realistic Use Cases
- A straightforward explanation of AI and generative AI—what it can and cannot do in classroom contexts.
- Common educator use cases: lesson planning, resource creation, differentiation, assessment support, and communication.
- Setting realistic expectations: viewing AI as a co-pilot rather than a replacement for professional judgment or school policy.
Getting Started with AI Tools in School Settings
- Choosing the right tools: web-based assistants and integrated AI features in widely used platforms.
- Basics of safe setup: managing accounts, adhering to school guidelines, and identifying information that should not be shared.
- Quick wins for teachers: summarizing content, rephrasing, generating examples, and enhancing clarity and tone.
Prompting Skills for Teachers
- How to effectively request what you need: specifying role, task, context, constraints, format, and providing examples.
- Core prompting patterns: brainstorming, drafting, critiquing, refining, comparing options, and creating variations.
- Practice: building a reusable prompt library tailored to your subject, grade levels, and common tasks.
Lesson and Resource Design with AI
- Drafting lesson outlines that align with learning intentions, success criteria, and curriculum outcomes.
- Creating classroom-ready materials: explanations, worked examples, worksheets, slide outlines, and discussion prompts.
- Differentiation: adjusting reading levels, adding scaffolds, providing extension activities, and suggesting multi-modal options.
Assessment and Feedback Support
- Generating question banks, formative assessments, and rubric descriptors that align with standards and task requirements.
- Drafting feedback comments and conferencing prompts while maintaining the teacher's voice and professional responsibility.
- Practice: creating an assessment support pack for a current unit (including questions, rubric language, and feedback stems).
Quality Assurance: Accuracy, Bias, and Learner Fit
- Identifying common issues: hallucinations, missing context, uneven depth, and inappropriate reading levels.
- Simple verification routines: cross-checking facts, requesting sources, and validating information against trusted references.
- Editing for inclusivity and accessibility: conducting bias checks, using culturally responsive language, and making adjustments for diverse learners.
Responsible Classroom Use and Implementation Planning
- Privacy and safety: handling student data, addressing sensitive topics, and ensuring appropriate prompts and outputs.
- Academic integrity: providing guidance on acceptable use, attribution expectations, and student-facing AI literacy activities.
- Action plan: designing one AI-supported lesson or workflow, defining boundaries and routines, and planning stakeholder communication.
Requirements
- Proficiency in using computers, web browsers, and standard school tools (such as Google Workspace or Microsoft 365).
- Experience in lesson planning and creating learning resources for primary or high school students.
- No prior programming experience is required.
Target Audience
