Part 2- How Can a Teacher Use This?

1. After reflecting on your searches, explain what ChatGPT did.
2. What are you thinking about ChatGPT now that you’ve used it?
3. Would you consider using it WITH your students?  Why or Why not?

While looking at Part 1, I actually created an account and I really am just amazed at the information that you can have this artificial intelligence tool complete for you. Tonight, I searched different questions about biography projects for grade 4 because that is our current unit of study. I am having my students write interviews of the person they are studying before they create a green-screen product. As a mentor text, I am using Eleanor Roosevelt. I asked ChatGPT to create a biography interview about Eleanor Roosevelt for 4th-grade students in the U.S. The interview that was written included most of the key components that I am having my students include in their writing. For me, this is an incredible time saver and a way to show them a quick example. I do believe that ChatGPT needs to be used as an added tool vs a crutch, but I think it provides great information for the classroom teacher. As the video showed, I also think it could be a great way to come up with comprehension questions for students, whether planned for small groups or on the fly during read-aloud. I would definitely consider using this with my students but feel that I would need to introduce it in a way that allows them to use it as an additional tool vs a way to have their tool complete the work for them.
