Beyond the Episode…

  1. Try using one of the AI tools (ChatGPT, Google Bard, or Microsoft Bing) to create one or more item(s) from the list below.  Be sure to use multiple prompts to refine the response so you get what you might actually use in your class.
    1. An email letter to a parent of a student who is struggling with topic/standard/ or unit in your subject
    2. A letter of reference about a student who (for example) has good character, works really hard to improve grades, and was recognized as “citizen of the month”
    3. Develop a lesson plan for a topic in your subject within your grade level.  Consider prompting it to provide tables, charts, correct answers, or rubrics

Evidence of Learning...

  1. Please provide a brief paragraph or two that explains the process you used to get the final response.
  2. Upload a picture/screenshot to show a response you found interesting.

Liberta Part III- Chat GPT for lessons

For this final task I used “Chat GPT” to search for a lesson plan idea.  I used specific words and prompts to set the parameters in a very narrow way.  I searched “Create a one-day lesson plan on Deng Xiaoping (45 min total) with use of student I Pads”. I started by simply saying create a lesson on Deng Xiaoping.  I knew, after watching the video, that I should get more parameters.  But I wanted to see step by step how the response changed as I added and specified items.  This is a topic I find hard to teach because the students are not really into it.  Even with footage of Tiananmen Square, students completely check out when it comes to the Four Modernizations.  After the initial search (general one), I got some ideas.  I then added that it was a 45-minute class period.  This broke down the tasks more and even offered times each should take.  I then added “with use of student I Pads”.  This then redrafted the response to include the technology piece.  It had the teacher sharing articles and resources electronically and chatting via the I Pad as a part of the lesson.  Like I mentioned earlier, I like to put my spin and flavor on the lesson.  But as a jumping off point in coming up with new lesson ideas this is a fascinating tool.

Lesson Plan Ex- Treaty of Versailles

I decided to use Chat GPT to search for a lesson plan for my 10th grade students on the effects of the Treaty of Versailles.  The initial results led me to a lesson plan for a 90 minute + block period and even included an extension homework activity.  It required students to role play as Allied and Central powers and even neutral nations.  I revised my next search to shorten this lesson to a 40 minute period.  Next, I asked Chat GPT to suggest some short videos to use as an anticipatory set.  I even asked what political cartoons I could use in our class discussion.  While specific titles or cartoons were not given, I did get results that suggested certain themes and key people to be on the look-out for.  Lastly, I asked Chat GPT to put the effects of the Treaty of Versailles in a table.  The simplicity of the table (see attachment) was very good and would be fairly easy for students to analyze and further discuss in class.
