Beginning AI Training

The biggest myth about AI in education is that it will:

• Make students less creative.

• Replace human teachers.

• Only be useful for science or math classes.

• Make grading much harder.

A common misconception is that AI-generated information is always 100% accurate and unbiased. The best approach for a teacher using AI for lesson planning is to:

• Trust the AI completely and use the information as-is.

• Use AI as a starting point and fact-check all outputs.

• Only use AI for simple, non-factual tasks like writing an email.

• Avoid using AI because it's too unreliable.

If you ask an AI chatbot to write a lesson plan, and it gives you a generic response, what is the most effective way to improve the output?

• Start over with a different chatbot.

• Tell the chatbot that its answer was not good enough.

• Provide more specific details and a clear 'persona' in your prompt.

• Wait a few days and try the same prompt again.

What is the most common reason teachers say they use AI in their daily work?

• To create advanced, high-level content they couldn't create before.

• To get ideas for new, expensive technology to use in the classroom.

• To save time on administrative and lesson preparation tasks.

• To replace traditional teaching methods with AI-driven instruction.

In AI, what does the term 'prompt' refer to?

• A notification that an AI tool needs to be updated.

• The text or input you give to an AI to generate a response.

• A type of AI that can create art.

• The automatic correction of grammar and spelling.

The most significant ethical concern for teachers using AI with student data is:

• The cost of the AI software.

• The potential for the AI to get a poor grade on a quiz.

• The chance that the AI will replace their job.

• Data privacy and the potential for student information to be misused.
