many people focus on the potential benefits of generative ai for kids when considering its application in the classroom. still, teachers can gain as much, if not more, from the technology. google and mit responsible ai for social empowerment and education (raise) have launched a free google generative ai educators course to assist middle and high school educators in utilizing generative ai tools to improve their workflow and their students\u2019 learning environment.<\/span><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
the self-paced, two-hour course is designed to help educators leverage generative ai to save time on routine tasks. from email composing to adapting content for various reading levels, creating innovative evaluations and organizing activities around students\u2019 interests, generative ai can streamline these processes, freeing up valuable time for educators. <\/span><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
by feeding their current lesson plan into the generative ai models, educators can even learn how to use generative ai to assist with one of the most time-consuming tasks: lesson planning. this will provide ideas for what to do next in the classroom, the media release explained.<\/span><\/p>\n
\u201cthis course empowers educators<\/span> to confidently integrate ai into their teaching, creating richer and more accessible learning experiences for all students,\u201d mit raise director cynthia breazeal said.<\/span><\/p>\n
teachers and administrators can access the course\u2019s five modules on the generative ai for educators web page. each module lasts no more than 40 minutes.<\/span><\/p>\n
according to the media release<\/span>, several school districts across the nation also intend to offer the course, including the anaheim union high school district in california, the miami-dade county public schools in florida, the chicago public schools in illinois, the albuquerque public schools in new mexico, the glenpool public schools in oklahoma, and the sun prairie area school district in wisconsin.<\/span><\/p>\n
\u201cin a rapidly evolving world, our teachers cannot afford to fall behind in accessing powerful generative tools that will help them develop new approaches to teaching and learning,\u201d said michael matsuda, the superintendent at anaheim union high school district.<\/span><\/p>\n
