AI for Teachers: Becoming an Expert Prompter

Most teachers have tried AI, got something generic, and quietly gone back to doing it themselves.

The problem is almost never the tool. It's how we ask.

This is a live two-hour workshop on using AI properly in your teaching. Not the hype, and not a tour of features. One method for asking, practised on your own real work, so that what comes back is actually usable the first time.

What you'll learn

• Where to start if you've never used one of these before
• Why your prompts aren't working, and the fix that takes ninety seconds
• The one thing to add that changes every answer you get
• How the same method works whether you teach Maths, Life Skills or Grade 1 phonics
• When to trust it, and when to double-check
• How to get more out of it without paying a cent
• What to do when it gives you something almost right

You'll leave with

A method you can use the same afternoon. A printable reference guide with ready-made prompt scaffolds for planning, assessment, differentiation and admin. And a much clearer sense of when to trust what these tools give you, and when not to.

Who it's for

Any teacher, from any phase or subject. No technical background needed. If you have never opened one of these tools, you are exactly who this is for. It is tool-agnostic, so whatever your school has given you, this works.

Practical details

Live on Google Meet, so join from wherever you are. Two hours with a short break.
