Despite what you may have heard, ChatGPT and other generative AI tools offer聽exciting possibilities聽for innovative teaching and personalized education. This聽hands-on specialization聽is designed for聽K-12 educators聽looking to harness AI to聽enhance lesson planning, engage students, and foster creativity鈥攏o prior experience with ChatGPT, AI, or prompt engineering required!
What You鈥檒l Learn
Throughout this specialization, you鈥檒l聽gain practical skills听迟辞:
鉁吢�Generate engaging lesson plans聽tailored to student interests鈥攍ike teaching fractions through Pok茅mon.
鉁吢�Create interactive games聽and printable learning materials鈥攕uch as a World Cup-inspired math game.
鉁吢�Design AI-powered class activities鈥攍ike students building their own fictional characters and crafting funny fill-in-the-blank stories.
鉁吢�Help students think innovatively鈥攕uch as brainstorming how to build a paperclip-and-bottle bridge strong enough to hold a person.

These techniques are adaptable to聽any subject or student level, making learning more聽interactive, creative, and fun!
Our students are growing up in a world where tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and LLama will be integral to聽how they learn and work. But truly succeeding with AI requires a聽new mindset鈥攐ne that聽amplifies聽critical thinking rather than replaces it.
Applied Learning Project
Teachers will learn how to integrate generative AI into their classrooms by designing interactive projects that encourage student creativity and critical thinking. Through hands-on activities, they will explore how to transform real-world photos into AI-generated challenges, brainstorm innovative solutions using everyday materials, and create engaging educational games鈥攅quipping them with practical strategies to enhance learning and problem-solving in any subject.
