If you would like to learn more about AI (Artificial Intelligence) and its implications for education, this free course curated by Dr Nick Jackson, is for you. It is intended to help teachers in their understanding and use of Artificial Intelligence in the form of the ChatGPT chatbot in their practice. It is intended to be both an introduction and an improvement tool.
The course can be followed in its entirety or on a more ad hoc basis. There are some basic formative assessments purely to assist retention of the more 'drier' elements but any form of summative assessment for this course would come from experimentation and developments in the practice of teachers who use it. In other words, the goals of the course are for more teachers to use ChatGPT, to use it more effectively and with confidence.
This course has been created and curated by Dr Nick Jackson: Twitter, LinkedIn.
Large portions of the course were planned and engineered using ChatGPT. All images used on this site and in the course were designed and adapted using an AI tool, Midjourney.
Significant contributions have been included from Leon Furze, Tom Barrett, Matt Esterman and Steve Brophy. Other contributors have been cited in the course.
Enjoy the learning and share widely. Let's embrace this technology and improve education.
