Good day!
I absolutely agree that AI is hotly debated among teachers and educators either in terms of generating teaching materials or academic integrity. I can't say that I'm an advanced AI user, still I use twee.com regularly to create texts or tasks for my classes, from conversation questions to video scripts, I think I've tried most of the options this resource offers and I'm relieved to save my time;) even though I have to check the materials to avoid some inconsistencies. I definitely recommend twee)

The implementation of AI tools can provide personalized learning experiences, adaptive assessments, and real-time feedback, which are essential for tailored support and academic growth. To increase the broader use of AI in classroom management, teaching, and assessment, it is crucial to provide educators with comprehensive training and professional development to effectively integrate these technologies into their teaching practices. Additionally, ensuring accessibility and inclusivity in AI tools is vital to cater to diverse student needs. Some AI tools that I would recommend trying include interactive educational platforms that offer personalized learning paths, AI-backed assessment tools for tracking student progress, and speech-to-text applications to assist students with special needs in expressing their ideas effectively.

@Ana_moderator Hi Ana, Hope everything is going well. I use AI with my students with autism since few years ago. For students with disability I recomend to use Microsoft Copilot AI and Reading Progress TEAMS. Both are user friendly and easy for our students with disabilities. For this competition I used Microsoft Copilot AI for Road Safety lessons and it was amazing to have positive results.

Kia ora,
AI is already a part of my teaching practice; I can use their lesson plan idea.
After generating and getting some ideas, I will adjust mine and integrate both.
All these make it easier to get more inspiration!
And I taught students to use it, which excited them.
Once, we wanted to make a poster for activities, but the students were nervous about drawing and designing. I taught them some easy tools, and we printed the poster.
It was a great success.
But be careful of using some photos which could contain students' faces and personal information.

Leveraging generative AI tools like ChatGPT can revolutionize learning experiences in various ways. Students can benefit from AI-powered tutoring systems that offer personalized assistance, interactive learning modules that reinforce understanding through quizzes and explanations, and writing assistance tools that provide real-time feedback on grammar and style. Additionally, language learning can become more immersive with AI-generated conversations and dialogue scenarios, while virtual laboratories simulate scientific experiments and aid in comprehension. Creativity is fostered through collaborative storytelling with AI-generated prompts and feedback, and research is facilitated with AI assistance in summarizing texts and refining search queries. Adaptive learning paths ensure personalized education based on individual needs, while discussions around the ethical implications of AI technologies promote critical thinking. By integrating generative AI tools into education, the potential for enhanced learning experiences is vast and continually evolving.
