Session description
Outline
This session begins by outlining two key objectives and inviting participants to complete a quick interactive challenge to assess their current confidence with AI.
We then explore how leading AI experts communicate with language models and how these same skills already exist in the teacher’s toolkit. The session challenges the idea that educators need to learn something new; instead, they often need to unlearn poor advice and recognise that their natural instincts already align with effective AI use.
Participants will discover why all educational AI use should be viewed through two distinct lenses. We’ll explore how this distinction reshapes both teacher and student use and goes some way to preventing poor use.
The session includes a walkthrough of the 2023 ISTE article and classroom experiment on student prompting, highlighting why the approach works and the wider potential it holds for transforming teaching and learning.
