Independent school educator guiding students use of AI tools.

ABOUT THIS VIRTUAL INTENSIVE

This session is designed for educators who are already using AI in their practice and are looking to develop more advanced skills. Our main focus will be on practicing prompting and training that more deeply personalizes AI to our needs. Through strategic, detailed prompting and providing AI with a knowledge base of resources that we curate, we can teach AI to behave in more specific ways and provide more helpful and reliable responses.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

Participants will:

  • Practice prompting Skills 2.0: improving prompting skills to generate better outputs from AI tools
  • Learn the benefits of training AI on specific resources and materials that we curate (using Claude or ChatGPT-4’s “GPTs”)
  • Explore new generative AI tools, especially multimedia creation (image, video, audio, etc.)

Participants will also be invited to showcase their own novel uses of AI. In all cases, we will imagine how we can build not only our literacy when it comes to use of AI, but that of our students, as well.

AUDIENCE

Classroom-based educators as well as school leaders. Ideal for teams!
