How to Create Engaging Lesson Plans with Simple AI Tools

December 7, 2024 @ 9:00 am - 10:00 am

Abstract:

AI is evolving rapidly, and its ability to change education is growing every day. As teachers, we should consider how we can embrace these advancements because they are here to stay. To help you get started, this webinar, specifically designed for ESL/EFL teachers, will guide you through developing a sample lesson plan from the beginning until the end using a combination of AI tools (yes, there’s more to AI than ChatGPT!). By the end of this webinar, you will gain the essential knowledge to use AI as your personal assistant and explore practical ways to integrate it into your practices. We will focus on key AI tools that can streamline lesson creation and boost student engagement. In one hour, you’ll learn how to create an engaging lesson that simplifies your teaching process and inspires your students. You will leave with a ready-to-use lesson plan that you can immediately apply in your teaching practice. The session emphasizes efficiency, helping teachers save time on everyday planning tasks and freeing up time for meaningful interaction with students. In today’s digital era, we believe that it is important to use the available resources and save your time for what matters most – connecting with your students.
