Part 2

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?

I asked chat GPT to help me plan a unit on American Imperialism. I asked it to explain why people supported American imperialism in the Gilded Age and why people were against it...to create 4 inference and 2 comprehension questions about the article it wrote...to then create a create a 40 minute lesson plan tailored to an 11th grade us history class about Imperialism...to create a task where students can demonstrate their understanding of this topic in a unique way...(it suggested a debate) and to create a rubric for this debate. Overall it was pretty amazing to see what it came up with. The ideas were good but the content it delivered was pretty basic. The suggestions lacked specificity and detail. I think its pretty amazing overall. I would definitely use Chat GPT with my students. I think we have to. They are using it already. I like the idea of having the kids ask Chat GPT to argue a POV/ persepective on a historical scenario (ie should the US have gotten involved in WW1, or should we have stayed neutral) and have the kids write a rebuttal argument to the Chat response.
