Lesson Plan Generation
Craft effective lesson plans and engaging activities quickly, harnessing the power of ChatGPTEmergency Lesson Planning with ChatGPT
A member of staff had called in sick on a Sunday but as there was no cover for the lessons, someone else had to lead the class instead. Ordinarily, the preparation of lessons and activities would have continued late into the night and prior to coming to work on a Monday morning. Instead, ChatGPT was utilised.
I downloaded the staff member’s SOL from SharePoint and input the relevant lessons into ChatGPT. I asked it to create me 2 x 2 hour lesson plans with activities, hand outs, quizzes and homework. It took me 30 mins in total, after editing/tweaking. The lessons were a success and the staff member came back after their illness to find the students had progressed as planned and were ready for the next topic.
This saved a great deal of time, stress, and anxiety. ChatGPT has changed the way I work for the better. Students’ learning remained unaffected, and they progressed according to plan.
The output given was spot on 99% of the time but as always, this needs to be checked by staff to ensure it is correct, as AI cannot be blamed for delivering incorrect content. Sometimes, therefore the output needs tweaking but this doesn’t take much time.
