THANKS VERY COOL GOOGLE I'LL JUST LET THE PLAGIARISM MACHINE THAT TELLS PEOPLE TO EAT GLUE AND BURNS DOWN THE RAINFOREST TO DESIGN MY CURRICULUM

ACTUALLY WE PROBABLY DON'T EVEN NEED TEACHERS WHEN WE CAN JUST SIT STUDENTS DOWN IN FRONT OF A CHROMEBOOK AND FEED THEM AI SLOP ALL DAY AND THEN THEY CAN USE AI TO ANSWER THE QUESTIONS

screm-aAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

As a teacher, the only things I've found AI to be useful are:

  1. "Give me ten ideas for X". Example: "give me twenty fun ideas for finishing a lesson on volcanos for 13 year olds". Maybe one of those ideas is good and I can adapt it.

  2. "Write an explanation of X and be sure to include the key terms A, B, C, D, etc. Make sure the text is fitting for 14 year olds." Then I'll fix up the explanation because it's still not exactly what I want. I'll delete the key terms and make it into a cloze worksheet.

Yeah as a former teacher I can imagine ai at actually being useful for putting together some slop for admins to use since they made us produce class scripts every day to submit to school admin that never actually read it, adding like an additional 8 hours of work every week on top of the 80 hours I was already working. Maybe use AI for that and then teach what you wanted to teach.
