@RileyMathClass @dent_official @pgliljedahl When I was introducing it to people for the first time, I did four 4s and gave them the numbers of 1-20 as answers. It was great as it got them engaged, was within their wheelhouse, but challenging enough to get some awesome thinking out

@Catlin_Tucker These are fabulous! Thank you!

@psmithdad I know we are all doing our best - especially in these times. I want people to think about it and explore it. Had AI write a few things for me today. I've been mulling over how to use it with the kids for the rest of the day.

This is a game changer. We must look at what we teach and how we teach it. What are we expecting from students. As an educator you need to check out ChatGPT. I put in a creative writing assignment my students completed before the break and it wrote a good story. Ss will use this.

[Trevor MacKenzie @trev_mackenzie]

If ChatGPT doesn’t cause educators (& education) to pause & reflect on how & what we teach, our students are being underserved & undervalued.

Never before has the need for skills such as curiosity, creativity, critical thinking, personal/social awareness been so important.

@trev_mackenzie Just had a look at it this morning. This has to be a game changer. Thinking skills, critical and creative, are going to be so important in creating learners who don’t just regurgitate. I asked it to write a 5 paragraph essay on Residential Schools in BC. It was pretty good.

I'd shared these over the past few years, but here they are in one place on my new "Resources" page. Will continue to update and add to this page as time permits. https://t.co/oQ3upA2TKM

Fun fact: It's 2:22 AM and I can't sleep.

Merry Christmas everyone! Love you all. 🧡

If you are in education and haven’t read this yet, here is your next read!

[JenniferLynnTeaches @jenniferlmoroz]

Check out this book: "Building Thinking Classrooms in Mathematics, Grades K-12: 14...". Just ordered!!! Can’t wait to read it ⁦@pgliljedahl⁩ https://t.co/BDL6cKKUqW

[Del Morgan @DelMorgan9]

@jenniferlmoroz @pgliljedahl It is by far the best educational book I have read for a long time. It’s a book that you change your practice because you read it!

Christmas break learning…discover ChatGPT

[Matt Miller 🗑️ @jmattmiller]

ChatGPT doesn't just write your students' essays for you.

20 ways ChatGPT can help you teach/learn

🧵 /startthread

1. Ask ChatGPT to write your lesson plans. (Or at least to get some new ideas.)

[Del Morgan @DelMorgan9]

I know which one sounds good to me…
