Using ChatGPT to Create a Lesson Plan

[@marciabrown5569]

This is truly exciting! I agree that when writing the lesson plan it is very helpful to have background in that topic. This would be an excellent tool for teachers to start their lesson plan about an objective and to also dig deeper into specific topics within an objective. As teachers we cannot completely ignore the new technology our students are exposed to daily. I grew up with the old encyclopedias, whereas students, including myself, today just Google a topic. Just the word Google is thought more of as a verb, to search, than a noun, the company. Times change. We can embrace this technology and use it to help our students become more successful.

Try this prompt to grade written work : Evaluate this text titled " ", which attempted to answer the question “ ?”, based on: Content (Relevance 10 points, Clarity 10 points, Depth 10 points, Accuracy10 points, Originality 10 points) relying on examples from the text; and English (Clarity 10 points, coherence10 points, Style10 points, Mechanics 10 points, Variation in Vocabulary 10 points ). Count the total number of words. Be very strict! Calculate a cumulative score out of 100. Offer bullet-point feedback on how to improve this text relying on examples from the text (refer to the author as “you’’).

Great video. I'm still trying to frame ChatGPT as a new spellcheck. If this becomes the new normal, how can we still train students to learn critically. So I appreciate the in-depth look, rather than a sky-is-falling mentality. One clarification for those who are interested. I think some of the query failures were because the query was too long, asking for a # of pages and not for a # of words. I was successful asking for a "write a 200 word essay about the death of a salesman." As mentioned, it's tough multitasking while live.

Thanks! You are correct about using pages instead of words - after the LiveStream, I did the Death of a Salesman “rap” as words and the results were really good! I just released the video on the danger that we face around citations with the tool and am scripting another relating it to Bloom’s Taxonomy. It’s really fascinating and has potentials and pitfalls - but we can use it well I believe. Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment too - I appreciate it!

Thank you Frank. It may seems a little bit funny, but one of my friends used ChatGPT to write a letter to Immigration Service of Canada to persuade them for giving visitor visa to his family.

[@LearningandTechnology]

Wow! That’s an interesting use case!

I created all my PE lesson plans for middle school with chatGPT.

[@LearningandTechnology]

WOW! That is really cool! I think it generates some great results - but also think it needs to be reviewed to ensure they are appropriate - but it sure seems to be a time-saver and helpful.

[@LearningandTechnology]

@@mercy6089 that’s not uncommon as the service is getting a lot of press and attention. It’s becoming overloaded.

I am in the process of developing online training for expert witnesses using PowerPoint. Presentations will be 1 hr. to as many as 4 hrs. long or longer. Any thoughts?

[@LearningandTechnology]

@@davida.doddridge4009 ChatGPT can help with developing ideas. I use iSpring as a tool to create the courses.

[@davida.doddridge4009]

@ thank you!

[@moodberry]

Excellent! Any tips on how to ask ChatGPT to create lesson plans for middle school students instead of adult learners?

[@LearningandTechnology]

Absolutely. It’s all in the prompt you supply - so if you state the grade level it will generate a result for that grade. It’s frightening and fantastic all at the same time 😀

[@heyitsbroski]

ChatGPT is nuts.

[@LearningandTechnology]

It really is. It’s sort of magical - but I’m not sure if it’s good or bad magic! Haha

[@incubooker]

Couldn you copy and paste 2000 words about the life in Toronto,etc, to chatgpt and ask, please make 10 questions multiple choice?

[@LearningandTechnology]

You could - ChatGPT can create assessments as well. They definitely would need to be reviewed and adjusted, but may be a quick start or reenforcement activity

[@ruthsutton6636]

@@LearningandTechnology yes you can I put in a criteria and ask it to create multiple choice exams works every time

[@LearningandTechnology]

@@ruthsutton6636 agreed - I still recommend reviewing them for accuracy though 😀

Good God, just skip to 6 mins and avoid the the filler

It’s not filler … it’s context 😀 Thanks for watching though
