I went in a couple different avenues.First I asked several non teaching questions about things I know (running, comic books, etc.) just to see what the responses would be. I got unique summaries on the topics I asked and it was very interesting to see all the differences when I asked the question in a similar way but asked for a different amount of words.
Second, I asked “ Can you write me a lesson plan for high school algebra on solving systems of equations in 2 variables.” It quickly told me this should be a three day process with an introduction day and 1 day for each of the two method to solve this systems (exactly what I do, so that is pretty awesome!) ChatGPT told me about pacing as well as what should be covered with potential stumbling blocks (This was in the conclusion).
Third, I asked “Can you please create 3 example problems on solving systems of equations in 2 variables.” I liked that it created these problems (each one was increasingly difficult) and then gave me a step by step solution to each problem. This is a great thing for planning and, well, I am undecided on how I feel about it with students. You can look up detailed solutions to questions I ask (which is good if you need help and it explained to you, but also a potential way for something else to do the work for you). I think this is an incredibly powerful tool, but I am curious if perhaps student accounts could be created to supplement work and help understand topics.
